Great Music of Holy Week and Easter

"Twenty-three hymns from The Hymnal 1982 receive absolutely definitive treatment here." -- G. Donald Kaye

Old and new hymns from The Hymnal 1982 for Palm Sunday through the season of Easter.

Our newest recording treats the listener to a musical journey from Palm Sunday through the Triduum into Easter and its season of fifty days. It features six of the choral ensembles of the Cathedral which engage children, youth, adults, amateur and professional musicians, as well as the renowned Compline Choir, and a variety of instruments and arrangements. The organ is a 1965 installation by the Dutch firm of D. A. Flentrop. All is ably performed under the direction of Dr. J. Melvin Butler, Organist and Choirmaster; with Dent Davidson, Music Associate and Cathedral Liturgist; Roger Sherman, Associate Organist; and Dr. Peter R. Hallock, Canon Precentor Emeritus.
