Product Details


Product Description

A Time to Rejoice! is a dramatic and poignant cantata for schools/children's choirs and piano (organ accompaniment also available) in which performers and audience embark on an exciting journey through time to witness the events of the first Easter.  The time machine is somewhat unreliable, adding humour to the story, and stops are made in the Garden of Eden and Bethlehem before arriving in Jerusalem for Palm Sunday and the events of the crucifixion.  The optional second parts greatly enhance the cantata and can be sung by a group of children or even an adult choir.

Whilst not a staged production, there is plenty of scope for acting in the roles of the Captains, and props such as tea lights for the opening procession, pilots' hats for the Captains and palm branches in the song The King is Coming.

A Time to Rejoice!  was premiered by St. Joseph's in the Park school, Hertingfordbury, UK on 17 March 2023.  Here are some comments from staff/parents:
'A Time to Rejoice! was amazing...the best production St. Joe's has ever put on' Deputy Head.
'An absolutely amazing evening! Such beautiful music so beautifully performed.  What an absolute joy from start to finish' Parent.
'It was a pleasure to be involved in what was a resounding success and moving account of the Easter story' Organist.
'We enjoyed it so much and it was a real triumph.  The children were so good and buzzing!' Parent.
'It was worthy of a West End production.  Absolutely amazing!' Parent
'What a wonderful cantata!  I was so impressed, what a lovely evening' Staff member.
'I thoroughly enjoyed the Easter cantata: your compositions were beautiful and dramatic in equal measure' Bursar.
