Another wonderful anthem from the matriarch of children's choirs, Helen Kemp. This joyful Easter anthem combined spoken word and sung word in a retelling of the resurrection announcement. It's the perfect selection for your Easter Introit or Gospel acclamation (or Gospel reading!). Be sure to add the eight handbells for an especially festive presentation. Included in our Rote to Note series, which features an enlarged vocal staff for beginning note-readers.
