Lent & Easter Musical with words by John Parker
This Joel Raney cantata, with text by John Parker, centers on the events of Holy Week - beginning with Jesus' triumphant ride into Jerusalem with one thousand hosannas filling the air, to the events of Good Friday and the true passion of the one sacrifice, and finally concluding with the joyous celebration of the risen one. The original music is both uplifting and intensely stirring, as the story unfolds in the life, death and resurrection of Jesus. Options are given for concluding with the Good Friday events or with the resurrection. An accessible orchestral accompaniment is available. Performance time: 25-30 minutes.

Composed by William Billings. Arranged by Kyle Johnson. Holy Week, Lent 5 A, Palm Sunday, Good Friday. Tune Name: When Jesus Wept. Sacred. Octavo. 8 pages. GIA Publications #009047. Published by GIA Publications (GI.G-009047).

UPC: 641151090474. Text Source: The New England Psalm Singer , 1770.

Kyle Johnson has taken the traditional canon “When Jesus Wept” and creatively deconstructed it. We never hear more than two parts in canon with each other at the same time. Then he introduces a new counter-melody in the other parts and fills out the harmonies in other ways. While the words can be lost in the traditional four-part canon, the overall effect of Johnson’s approach is to create a moving meditation on the text. Easily accessible and highly recommended for small SATB choirs, but any size group will appreciate the artistry of this piece.

So much more than just another setting of John 3:16! Subtle choral harmonies offset a lovely, ethereal melody for the soloist. A beautiful choice for calling everyone to worship or as a meditation within your liturgy.

†œA Purple Robe” will find use throughout Holy Week celebrations. The poignant text is a meditation on the passion and death of Christ. A dramatic piano part supports the anguish of the text. Generous use of unison and two-part texture makes the piece easier to learn in the midst of musical preparation for Holy Week and Easter.

Composed by Franz Joseph Haydn. Arranged by Zack Stachowski. Lent, Palm Sunday, Good Friday. Sacred. 64 pages. GIA Publications #10445. Published by GIA Publications (GI.G-10445).

  Using several versions of the original work as inspiration, Zack Stachowski has arranged The Seven Last Words of Christ for solo instrument and piano, making Haydn’s music accessible to music ministers who may not have access to larger instrumental ensembles.    These prayerful meditations can be used as preludes, as music for reflection, or in ritual when singing is not permitted. Though the pieces are inspired by the Seven Last Words from the Cross and find their most obvious fit in the season of Lent and Holy Week, the diversity of color and character makes them suitable on other occasions throughout the entire year.   (Since these arrangements were envisioned as liturgy preludes or as instrumental pieces during ritual, Haydn’s original prelude and earthquake movements have been excluded due to their overtly dramatic and performative nature.)    .

Joseph Haydn's oratorio Die sieben letzten Worte unseres Erlosers am Kreuze is probably one of the most frequently performed settings of music for Good Friday. Haydn set these Seven Words in a dramatic, extremely gripping emotional style which is utterly compelling. Originally the work was conceived as a purely instrumental composition - as meditative music in seven slow movements with an introduction and concluding movement (Il Terremoto - the earthquake) for a Passiontide church service. From the outset, Haydn had composed the themes of the movements with a vocal spirit in mind, so when he heard a vocal arrangement of his work in 1794 in Passau with a German singing text - an obvious idea - it inspired him to write his own vocal version. The first performance took place in 1796 in Vienna. With the flourishing of choral societies in the 19th century, this vocal version of the Seven Words became one of the most frequently-performed Passion music settings of all. The critical Urtext edition of the work now published offers a revised musical text reflecting current scholarly standards.

You really must have a copy of Mercy, Mercy! GIA’s new benefit album for church musicians who were victims of the recent hurricanes. You are going to love the selections! We’ve put together a delightful and eclectic mix of tunes and texts coupled with an impressive list of composers, arrangers, and performers who, for the most part, share a common thread. Many of the selections were written or performed by folks who suffered loss during the disaster in the Gulf Coast region. Other pieces have a special musical connection to that area of the country. Ryan Meyers’ home in Mississippi suffered extensive damage as a result of the storm. ValLimar Jansen has numerous relatives who lost everything. The everpopular Dameans all met in the 1960s at Notre Dame Seminary in New Orleans. We included something with a French connection: Théodore Dubois’ (1837–1924) haunting “Adoramus te Christe,” first performed on Good Friday, 1867, in Paris. There are three beloved African American spirituals. And how could we forget Rory Cooney’s arrangement of “O When the Saints Go Marching In”? There are other great songs here, but you’ll have to listen! This album will touch your heart. Best of all, your purchase will help rebuild the lives of church musicians. Both the American Guild of Organists (AGO) and the National Association of Pastoral Musicians (NPM) have set up funds to help church musicians affected by these tragic storms. The composers represented on this recording have donated their royalties, GIA Publications, Inc., has donated all production costs, KRT Select has donated the cover art for the CD, and CRTCustom Products has donated the manufacturing expenses. 100% of the retail price of this CD will be split evenly between the AGO Hurricane Relief Fund and the NPM Hurricane Assistance Fund.
