Review:
For SATB voices and organ with optional handbells, brass, and congregation, this stunning hymn concertato is brilliantly conceived from beginning to end and an excellent choice for Easter morning! The cascading bell peal sets the tone for EASTER HYMN, leading the way for all the forces to join in worshiping the majesty and glory of the risen Lord. “Jesus Christ Is Risen Today,” the commonly used alternate text, is also included. The setup of the score allows nicely for the congregation to join in from the hymnal. This festive Easter anthem is 84 measures and is set in C Major.
