Lent and Easter Musical From Tom Long and Allen Pote, this 35-minute cantata is a fresh retelling of the gospel from the perspective of three women: Mary, the mother of Jesus, Rachel, the woman caught in adultery, and Mary of Magdala. For SATB choir featuring three solo parts for soprano, alto and mezzo-soprano, plus smaller solo parts for tenor and baritone. The story that is told culminates in a moving description of the events of Easter morning, and its implications for us, His followers.
