Inspired by the spiritual “Were You There ” this musical experience is based on several monologues by those who were at the cross. The work leads us through many emotions: from the Holy Love shown to Mary Magdalene tothe intimacy of Mother Mary's “Still My Son ” to the regret of Peter in “It Should Have Been Me.” The musical can be of almost any length since each momologue and anthem may be used independently. However“We Were There” is used it will provide a powerful Holy Week resource for years to come. Maximum length if all pieces are used: 53 minutes.Includes: Were You There • Holy Love • Christ Is Our Brother• Surely This Was the Son of God • How Can It Be • Still My Son • It Should Have Been Me • We Were There • At the Cross.

Using Peter as the sole narrator and the dramatic focal point, Upon This Rock depicts the events of Holy Week while revealing Peter's personal perspective on the significance of each. Jesus' appearances to His disciples during those confusing and discouraging post-resurrection days are also included, as the plans for building God's church and spreading the Gospel are beautifully and dramatically portrayed through the creativity of composer Pepper Choplin. This unique presentation combines original material with best-selling favorites to create an extraordinarily accessible work for most choirs. Upon This Rock is indeed a representation of the very genesis of Christianity as we know it today, having as its foundation the solid Rock of Jesus and the steadfast devotion of Peter, whom Jesus proclaimed as His Rock.
