O Saviour of the World by Sir John Goss
Transcribed for Wind Quartet by Hugh Levey
Scores for Oboe (or Flute), Clarinet, Horn and Bassoon
This quartet is a transcription of an emotional choral anthem by Sir John Goss (1800 to 1881) who was a professor of harmony at the Royal Academy of Music in London for over 50 years and was also the organist at St. Paul's Cathedral. It uses words from the Anglican Book of Common Prayer and the Catholic Missal.
Goss uses sequences of overlapping phrases, unexpected harmonies, carefully chosen dynamics, and contrasts between legato and declamatory passages to create the emotional highs and lows. There is much to interest the performer and this is a great ensemble study piece for younger players.
