Foundation: 3rd Violin (Viola [TC])

A traditional folk hymn meets an Americana hoedown in this delightful work for string orchestra. This setting, by Zachary Docter, is based on the hymn How Firm a Foundation. It creatively incorporates a variety of textures, including pizzicato, lyricism, and a vibrant hoedown that would make Copland proud! (2:10)
