Review:
This collection of hymn tunes contains two medleys and a single title arrangement. All are useful in the Easter season. “Easter Story” combines “Alas and Did My Savior Bleed”, “Christ the Lord Is Risen Today”, and “Crown Him”, all suitable for Easter use. “Low in the Grave” is a musical drama with a dirge in minor key using chimes, the resurrection foretold, and the resurrection finale, all utilizing the basic hymn tune. The final medley sets “Fairest Lord Jesus”, “Jesus Is All the World”, and the three settings of “All Hail the Power”. All of these settings are at level two, but are creative, resonant offerings to worship.
