Description:
This macaronic, SATB arrangement of the sequence for Easter Sunday begins and ends with the first line of the Latin chant executed in each voice part. The quick tempo and the rhythmic passages in the organ add excitement while the text bounces back and forth between voice parts. The finely crafted organ accompaniment supports the importance of the text.
