The Sacred Music Press proudly offers this dramatic and haunting cantata, commemorating the most important celebration of the Christian year. From Jesus' triumphal entry into Jerusalem, his short time together with his disciples in the Upper Room, his agony in Gethsemane, his crucifixion at Golgotha and his glorious Easter resurrection, five familiar hymn texts (Ride On, Ride On in Majesty; Here, O My Lord; Go to Dark Gethsemane; There Is A Green Hill Far Away; and That Easter Day With Joy Was Bright) are transformed into original, colorful and highly distinctive choral anthems for Holy Week, all of them woven together with Scriptural narration. And once again, this composer's hallmark --substantial and solid choral writing supported by lush, graceful organ accompaniments -- prevails throughout this vivid and radiant accomplishment.
