Review: The supreme position of Christ the Lamb seated on the throne is established with magnificent music in this arrangement of this Sunday morning favorite. Bold, sweeping gestures adorn this version of the hymn with fantastic support being offered by the accompaniment and the optional chamber orchestration. Vocal parts will be encouraged by the quality of the harmonic writing, and listeners will instantly connect to the almost cinematic approach. Truly unique! Score and Parts (fl 1-2, ob, cl 1-2, bn, tpt, perc 1-3, hp, vn 1-2, va, vc, db) available as a digital download.

Review: The writing team of John Purifoy and Pamela Stewart have crafted a brief work for Maundy Thursday or Good Friday, suitable for use as a Tenebrae service. Told from the historical perspective of the Gospels, as well as from the Old Testament laments that foreshadow them, Lamentations of the Lamb takes us on a journey through the final days in the life of Christ. Each anthem itself is a plaintive lament taken from these combined narratives. With a final stirring lamentation offered by creation, here is a powerful ending to Holy Week in preparation for Easter. Songs include: A Gathering of Shadows; The Table of Forgiveness; Forsaken in the Garden; In the Twilight of My Sorrow; Come, Ye Disconsolate; Lamentation for the Lamb.

Songlist: A Gathering of Shadows, The Table of Forgiveness, Forsaken in the Garden, In the Twilight of My Sorrow, Come, Ye Disconsolate, Lamentation for the Lamb
