Eberlin's programmatic setting of the offertory Terra tremuit was written for the festive liturgy of Easter Sunday at Salzburg Cathedral, which in the 17th and 18th centuries was a center of the cultivation of the polyphonic offertory. Verses 9 and 10 of Psalm 76 (Vulgata 75), with their vivid description of the earth trembling and falling silent are Eberlin's basis for the offertory. Eberlin depicts the earthquake by means of a written-out tremolo of the strings, and by staccato singing of the syllables of the word tremuit. The Resurrection is depicted musically by ascending figures at the words dum resurgere. An Alleluia concludes the work. Score available separately - see item CA.2711000.

Written for 3 to 5 octave handbell choir. Level 3-. Sandra Winter's jubilant original piece is as much a delight to ring as it is to hear. A bold, joyous opening gives way to a memorable melody filled with both rising and falling peals, reminiscent of tower bells in a belfry. A brief middle verse gives the melody to the lower treble bells, allowing them their moment in the sun before the entire ensemble resounds once more in effusive celebration. A wonderful addition to any worship, concert, or festival setting.
