Hymn concertato

The Hymn concertato is a genre of hymn arrangement for choir in which varied treatments of stanzas are written out, all based on the familiar tune, and almost always ending with a verse for the congregation to join on. Organ with brass instruments and/or tympani are the usual accompaniment.

The term seems to be American, although the form appears^{[citation needed]} connected to similar works by Vaughan Williams and Holst as well as possibly to the concertato style motets of the 17th century German composers whose descendants settled in the midwest.
