Teaching Overview

Praise the Lord for Spring is an anthem for the conclusion of the choir year. Robert Powell’s memorable refrain is sung easily by both choir and congregation. The greatest challenge for the choir is the memorizing of the three verses. Use rhythmic chant warm-ups with pictures as they learn the text. Use descending fourths and fifths (m. 4, m. 14), as well as “Praise the Lord” (la-ti-do in m.16-17), as warm-ups for this anthem.
