This multi-use cantata/collection is a celebration of some of the most treasured hymns in our sacred songbook. This flexible work comes with two separate narrations. One narration is fashioned as a festival of hymns, involving the choir and congregation singing together as the narrator shares the power of these time-honored paeans of praise. Another option, framed in a more traditional cantata format, uses a narration that carries the work through the ministry, passion and resurrection of Jesus - specially tailored for spring and Easter presentations. This tapestry of worship can also be used as a collection of individual anthems that choir directors can pull from whenever a special hymn arrangement is needed. A powerful orchestral accompaniment option adds elegance and majesty. Filled with musical and message diversity, this tour-de-force of favorite hymns will become an essential part of your choral library.
