The Crown and the Cross - Instrumental Ensemble Score/parts By Mark Hayes. For Instrument Parts and Conductor's Score. Worship Works. Holy Week, Palm Sunday, Eastertide. Sacred Anthem. [Paperback] Mark Hayes

This music drama is approximately nine minutes in length and is perfect for incorporation into regular worship on Palm/Passion Sunday. John Parker's inspired narrative opens the work with shouts of "Hosanna!" as Jesus enters Jerusalem. Mark Hayes's score enters with growing intensity, and the choir sings a triumphant anthem of praise. The mood changes during the first interlude, as the high priests plot against Jesus, and the music beautifully underscores the scripture-based narrative. The second chorus conveys the scene at the Last Supper with haunting melodies and a lyrically flowing accompaniment. The mood of the following interlude is one of steadfast faith, quoting the hymn "All Hail the Power of Jesus' Name." Its narrative is inspired by Philippians 2:5'11. The final chorus is a majestic yet reflective affirmation of faith in praise to Jesus, Who was faithful to His final breath. Flute, Clarinet, Oboe, Horn, Trumpet, Percussion, Timpani, Piano, Synth Strings.
