About this arrangement

Organ (SATB) - early intermediate SKU: CR.984113 Composed by Michael Burkhardt. Choral. Octavo. With music. Concordia Publishing House #984113. Published by Concordia Publishing House (CR.984113). UPC: 078777073374. 7 x 10.25 inches.Michael Burkhardt's setting for SATB choir and organ of Rich Oelschlaeger's text, an impressionistic reflection of the Easter morning story. The freely chant-like choral writing shows a carefully nuanced attention to the text and hints at familiar Easter tunes. The Alleluia chant refrain is based on the Gregorian antiphon, "Lapis revolutus est:" The stone is rolled away from the entrance of the tomb. Whom are you seeking, O woman, the living among the dead? Do not cry, Mary. The Lord is risen! Alleluia! (Luke 24:2, 5-6; John 20:15). Appropriate throughout Eastertide, this piece would also make a fine Alleluia and Verse.
