A powerfully emotive setting that contrasts moments of reflection with declamatory exultation, Psalm 57 uses passages from the eponymous psalm in the King James translation. Written in 1972, it is dedicated to the Brazeal Dennard Chorale, a Detroit-based choir known for championing the music of Black composers. Jackson King employs imitative writing to great effect, and the anthem's slow tempo makes space for expansive melodic lines.
