Description:
The familiar and beloved "O filii et filiae" is given a solemn, yet majestic treatment in this arrangement from Robert Farrell. Though published in the GIA Choral Series, the familiar refrain is readily accessible to assemblies for use at liturgy throughout Eastertide. Brass interludes herald each verse while Farrell varies each verse with unique and compelling choral and instrumental harmonizations.
The Horn in F part is a substitute for Trombone I.
