Historical Background:

Edward Miller (1735-1807): Edward Miller, an English composer and organist, is renowned for his contributions to church music. His most enduring legacy is the melody ROCKINGHAM, originally composed in 1790 for the hymn When I Survey the Wondrous Cross. ROCKINGHAM's enduring popularity and versatility have made it a cherished melody in Christian hymnody for centuries, embodying the solemnity and reverence of sacred music.

Margaret Deland (1857-1945): Margaret Deland, an American novelist, poet, and humanitarian, crafted Easter Music as a poignant reflection on the Easter season's profound significance. Deland's evocative words invite listeners to contemplate the themes of rebirth, redemption, and hope that lie at the heart of Easter's message. Through her literary talents, Deland captured the essence of the Easter story, infusing it with depth and emotion.

Arrangement Details:

This edition of Easter Music transcends traditional choral settings with the addition of powerful instrumental accompaniment for optional brass quartet. The majestic resonance of the brass instruments enhances the arrangement's grandeur, providing a stirring backdrop to the choir's melodic lines. Choirs have the flexibility to perform this arrangement as a standalone anthem or incorporate it seamlessly into congregational worship, making it a versatile addition to Easter services or any sacred occasion.

Ideal Usage:

Whether performed as a standalone anthem during Easter services or integrated into congregational hymnody, Easter Music offers a captivating musical experience that resonates with audiences of all ages. Its timeless melody, profound lyrics, and dynamic instrumental accompaniment combine to create a powerful expression of faith and celebration, making it a perfect selection for Easter Sunday or any worship setting seeking to embrace the hope and joy of the resurrection.

Composed by Robert Edward Smith. Christian,Praise & Worship,Sacred. 9 pages. ROBERT EDWARD SMITH MUSIC #985177. Published by ROBERT EDWARD SMITH MUSIC (A0.1401980).

This is a musical setting of the English text for the Liturgy, or Mass, as celebrated in Catholic, Episcopal, Anglican, and other denominations that use the ICEL translations of the Ordinary.  It is meant for organ and choir to support the singing of the congregation, but is easy enough to learn as to allow use by congregations without the support of a choir.  The entire purpose of this setting is to provide music that is easy enough for a congregation to learn and sing that they may do so entirely on their own, with only organ as support.  The audio musical sample of the Sanctus is an example of this simplicity.

The PDF includes the score for organ and choir, as well as congregation parts which may be printed on both sides of 8x10 cards to be left in the pews.  However, the music has proven to be easy enough to learn that these cards may be unnecessary.

Composed by Traditional Christmas Carols. Arranged by Edward David Zeliff. Christmas,Sacred. Octavo. 20 pages. Edward David Zeliff #4766993. Published by Edward David Zeliff (A0.888261).

This energetic medley of five traditional Christmas carols, O Come, All Ye Faithful – It Came upon the Midnight Clear – What Child Is This? – Angels We Have Heard on High – The First Noel, is bold, vibrant, delicate, and tender by turns, with variety in the voicing and an exciting piano accompaniment that is both supportive of the choral writing and highly attractive in its own right. The piece can be placed anywhere on a program, but is very effective as a concert opener, much like an orchestral concert overture.
