Based on a delightful 16th century German folksong, this radiant Easter anthem with original, new text by Steven Taranto rejoices in new life that comes in spring as well as the message of Christ's resurrection. Great for older children's choirs, the anthem provides an excellent opportunity for singing in canon and simple two-part harmony. Choristers will also enjoy the composer's notes that highlight several stanzas from the original German text along with an English translation.
