Choir Music
for Lent & Easter
Ah, Holy Jesus—arr. Brenda Austin. The
introduction immediately draws the listener
in with singing bell techniques, chimes, and
suspended higher bells with mallets. The
middle section is the tune rung with eighth-
note accompaniment and interesting harmonic
variations. An interlude brings us to another
key and a stronger stanza. The piece ends as
it began. Very meaningful!

Triumphant
Linda Scholes.
This original tune is triumphant indeed! With prominent
syncopation and bold chords throughout, it sets a joyous and
celebratory mood from the outset. A slower, more thoughtful
section featuring chimes and light malleted bass bells offers a
nice textural contrast before a return to the opening figure and
feel, which rounds out the piece on a bold celebratory note.
While perfect for an Easter celebration, use this piece for any
moment of celebration in worship or concert!
