Someone asked Mr. Walters, Why write an Easter cantata that's completely focused on the resurrection experience? He replied, Simple. I just thought it was time. After a week of music dedicated to the persecution, death and apparent failure that immediately preceded the resurrection, how much time is left, then, for us to celebrate the gift Jesus gave us? And so generously and completely? Here, then, is his talented response: a glorious compendium of anthems celebrating and rejoicing in the victory of the cross and the beginning, once again, of personal renewal.
