Composed by Kremser. Arranged by Glover. Young Concert Band. Command Series. Audio recording available separately (item CL.WFR336). Sacred. Score and set of parts. Composed 2005. Duration 3 minutes, 13 seconds. C.L. Barnhouse #011-3472-00. Published by C.L. Barnhouse (CL.011-3472-00).

This famous hymn ("We Gather Together") has been skillfully arranged for the Barnhouse "Command" series by Andrew Glover. An opening chorus featuring clarinets and horns is followed by a woodwind choir, and concludes with an impressive finale. Excellent for teaching tone development, lyrical playing, and phrasing, it's a great choice for middle school or very young high school groups, and works well for contest/festival as well as concert. Inspiring!
