This Joyful Eastertide
The Church's Paschal Party from Easter to Pentecost
 
From the Pastor of Christ Church-
According to Matthew, it was toward the dawn of the first day of the week when two women went out to ponder the sepulcher.  Upon their arrival they meet an angel.  This angel is the first to share the greatest of news; "He is not here, for he has risen."  So they departed quickly from the tomb "with fear and great joy and ran to tell the disciples."  It doesn't take much imagination to see them running, skipping, hopping and jumping all the way back.  One can visualize the resultant celebration as the women shared the glorious news.  Perhaps their worship was filled with great trumpet sounds...and the sounds of lute and harp, timbrel, string, and pipe.  Surely the cymbals clashed, and certainly the faithful danced with joy.  On and on their celebration ran.
 
From the Director of Music of Christ Church-
It is the prayer of the cadre of musical servants at Christ Church that Christians throughout the land will enjoy and be inspired by our Eastertide Lessons and Carols on this recording.  We hope that the musical arrangements herein will offer clergy and choir directors some encouragement for teaching new and unfamiliar old hymns to their congregations during the fifty days of Easter and Ascension, culminating in Pentecost.
