The editors have selected a richly varied collection of sacred pieces for this period of the Church's year, always bearing in mind practical considerations and liturgical needs. Pieces are presented in order according to the Church's calendar, moving from Ash Wednesday and Lent, through Passiontide and Palm Sunday, to Maundy Thursday, Good Friday, Easter Eve, and Easter itself. The best of the standard repertoire is included alongside fine, less familiar, works. Ranging widely from the sixteenth century to the present day, this is a complete and practical collection for church choirs of all sizes and levels of ability. Forces or CategorySATB accompanied &

"Whether or not you like this sort of binding for choral copies, go and buy one for your organist who will love to have a copy that easily lies open flat (and, if they already have a copy, will not spurn a second copy to help with page turns)." - James L Montgomery, Church Music Quarterly, March 2007
