John Stainer's stellar anthem God so Loved the World from his oratorio, The Crucifixion, has here been arranged for string orchestra by Andrew Wainwright. This enduring work is possibly the most sublime musical expression of a beloved text from the Gospel of John. Although set as a standalone item, it will also work well as a choral accompaniment to the original vocal parts.
