SKU: A0.939976

Composed by César Zumel. Christian,Contemporary,Easter,Sacred. Octavo. 3 pages. César Zumel #3062489. Published by César Zumel (A0.939976).

Around two minutes of music for saying the last bye, plenty of sorrow and hope.

For church funerals at communio, or at the end of the ceremony. Affordable for SATB choir a bit experienced, really easy to describe and to show sorrow by your own voice. Contemporary music is used for showing sorrow but enough to be sung by a non profesional nor semi-profesional choir.
The "Canticum Zacchariae" lyric is found in Luke (I, 67-79) and it is sung at the funeral. The deceased receives prayers and this song, accompanied by two candles and a cross. Just before "Canticum Zacchariae" it is sung "Liberame Domine, eternal death, ..." and "In paradisum: deducant Angeli ...". "Canticum Zacchariae" sums up the hope placed on eternal life and which Luke tells in his youth gospel of Jesus.

The music that accompanies this song can not escape the pain, the tonality is not fixed, there are fragments of Gregorian imitation, there are heart-wrenching sentences, because despite hope, it is a funeral song, proper to Holy Week. It wraps a real sorrow.
