UPC: 888680897741. 5.0x5.0x0.177 inches. Samuel Crossman/John Leavitt. Luke 23:26-43, Mark 15:16-32, Matthew 27:32-56.
With arching gestures of melodic charm, this octavo presents one of sacred literature's most compelling texts. The piece uses an optional soprano solo with vocal parts providing an orchestra-like tapestry of sound to undergird the expressive main theme. Later the anthem takes on a dramatic turn as jubilant hosannas turn to rabble cries of crucify! before retuning to its lofty theme. A stunning and dramatic choice for Good Friday. Score and Parts (fl 1-2, enghn/ob, a cl 1-2, bn, perc 1-3, hp, vn 1-2, va, vc, db) available as a digital download.
