Klappentext

for SATB (with divisions) and piano
Wilberg's arrangement of the American hymn His eye is on the sparrow is meditative and melodic, filled with unison lines and simple, but rich harmonies. This lilting setting opens with verses for unison upper- and lower-voices, before all parts combine ad build to create a full, and comforting sound.
