Easter Anthems
All Hail the Power of Jesus' Name—
Michael Burkhardt. This creative hymn
concertato begins with an organ and brass
fanfare followed by the congregation singing
the CORONATION tune and alternating verses
with the choir singing the DIADEM tune. Bright
and festive brass quintet and timpani parts
make this a memorable edition for Easter,
Christ the King Sunday, or any festive occasion.

Alleluia—Eurydice V. Osterman. Employing
the single word "Alleluia" throughout, this
piece is a joyous addition to Easter services
or other festive celebrations. Employing a
good deal of divisi yet is largely homophonic,
allowing voices to feel secure in their rhythms.

Alleluia! He Is Risen—Bob Hurd/arr. Rick
Modlin. Catchy and upbeat, this song for
Easter Sunday and the following season
emphasizes both the Resurrection and the
"rising up from the water" of all those initiated
into Christ's paschal mystery. As such, it is
also ideal for Rites of Christian Initiation for
Adults (RCIA). Befitting its joyful Easter theme,
the piece includes parts for brass trio.

Day of Arising—Carl Schalk/arr. Michael
Burkhardt. This accessible arrangement of
Carl Schalk's hymn tune,
RAABE, is perfect for
the smaller choir with optional congregational
singing. Susan Palo Cherwien's text compares
the story of Jesus's appearance to the
disciples on the roadway with the way in
which Christ is revealed to us in the breaking
of bread. Organ accompaniment and optional
oboe or clarinet are very effective.

Renaissance style, the hand drum adds to the
dancelike rhythms of the melody. Use this for
your Easter anthem or as a hymn concertato
with the congregation joining in.

The Strife Is O'er—arr. Robert J. Powell. A
bright concertato setting of the powerful Easter
hymn tune VICTORY. The piece begins with a
dialog between the brass and the choir, then
immediately involves the congregation. The
congregation sings in unison while the choir
augments the singing with parts. A choir-only
verse that may be sung a cappella, then the final
stanza with congregation plus descant serve as
the conclusion to this very useful setting.
