This Joyful Eastertide—Jeffrey Smith.
This choral fantasy uses the hymn tune
VRUECHTEN as its underpinning but riffs on
the tune by altering the phrasing, cadences,
and even takes an excursion into the relative
minor. Divisi parts form two separate
choirs for an a cappella verse; otherwise,
an energetic organ accompaniment keeps
everything on track. The result is an
exuberant Easter anthem with just the right
balance of the familiar and the fresh. Also
available in the original Dutch.

of Kings! Scored for SATB choir, organ, and
