Alleluia!įought the fight, the battle won. Sing ye heavens and earth reply Alleluia! Raise your joys and triumphs high, Alleluia!

If this piece is done with organ, to relieve the fatigue of the low brass players it is recommended that all of the brass rest during the third stanza.Ī unique feature of this piece is that the horn part contains a sort of hunting call motif during the final stanza. The brass quintet is two trumpets, F horn (a euphonium part is included if needed to substitute), trombone, and tuba. So this is a sort of a one-size-fits-many piece. Choir or congregation can simply sing directly from a hymnal. The brass quintet can stand alone, or the organ can stand alone, or the tympani can be added to either, organ can play with just two trumpets, or all can play together, and again, adding singers is also very easy.

The first three stanzas are in concert C, and the final stanza is in concert D. The piece is introduced and the stanzas are connected by a brass bridge, each time ending in the same way to easily cue the choir or congregation. This is the quintessential Easter hymn, being sung every Easter throughout the English speaking world by almost all Christian denominations, and in many many other languages and countries across the world.
