A twelve-movement extended work for SATB choir, soloists, keyboard (organ or piano), and instruments.

A twelve-movement extended work for SATB choir, soloists, keyboard (organ or piano), and instruments. The text by Richard Leach is a Lutheran re-envisioning of the Requiem Mass that is a celebration of God in Christ’s victory over death. Including settings of the Kyrie, Sanctus, and Agnus Dei, the work as a whole is confessional rather than intercessory or triumphalistic.

The music by Amanda Husberg—composer of two of the most popular new tunes in Lutheran Service Book, SARAH-ELIZABETH and LOVE’S LIGHT—was written to reflect the more joyous nature of the text. Written in a variety of styles, the movements may be used independently for numerous occasions throughout the Church Year, or the work may be performed as an integrated concert piece.

Contents: 1. Sentences: Where could I go from Your Spirit?; 2. Introit: I Heard a voice from heaven saying; 3. Kyrie: Come from dust, we go to dust; 4. Psalm: Out of the depths; 5. Acclamation: I heard a voice cry out; 6. Anthem: Come from dust, we go to dust; 7. Offertory: The Lord is my shepherd; 8. Sanctus: Holy, holy, holy Lord; 9. Agnus Dei: Lamb of God; 10. Communion: Kingdom come; 11. Departure: God’s children now; 12. Acclamation: Maranatha
