Our first songwriting team has again combined their talents to bring us an exceptionally moving piece perfect for Good Friday or Lent: And all the world was silent when Christ came forth to die. The sparrows ceased their singing, the sun had left the sky. Although scored for Two-Part Mixed voices, some passages are deliberately assigned to higher or lower voice parts, lending a soloistic quality to the work. The piece closes with a quiet prayer for Christ's mercy. An optional oboe part is included in the score.

Such a beautiful and powerful meditation for Maundy Thursday or Good Friday! As for difficulty singing, the hardest part is the dynamics -- smooth transitions from soft to loud and back again, breathing properly to sing quietly yet able to be heard at the back of the sanctuary. The "miserere" passages are wonderful, with the men singing "miserere" while the women sing "silence". At the close, it's reversed. Fantastic!
