Review:
John Behnke has created a striking Easter anthem on the tune LASST UNS ERFREUEN, which may be used with or without congregation. Stirring brass and handbell parts are used throughout the piece to create a truly worshipful anthem. 3-5 octaves of handbells are used. The organist may play from either the Full Score or the Choral Score. A reproducible page for congregation is included. It is scored in D Major or Eb Major and is 76 measures.
