A New Heart (2017)

for SAB choir, piano | 00:03:00

by Melissa Dunphy

Commissioned by Philip Barnes, Lansin Limler and their singers at Third Baptist Church, St. Louis.

Although this original composition was conceived and written for SAB voices, choirs of any size will find it rewarding. The writing is accessible and well-crafted, and the piano supports without obscuring. The text from Ezekiel often comes up in Lent but there will be many additional uses for it throughout the choir season. A New Heart
Text adapted by the composer from Ezekiel 36:26.

I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you. I will take away your heart of stone. I will give you a heart of flesh.
