REPTON is a hymn tune by Hubert Parry, associated with Dear Lord and Father of Mankind and other texts. The original four-part harmonization features characteristic depth of harmonic textures and forms the basis for this arrangement. Each verse features progressive rhythmic alterations, shifts, and pauses for varied effects. This style is best suited to a quartet with one cellist per part.

For a similar treatment of another hymn tune, see REST, which happens to share a common text pairing.
