Stephen Hatfield: When It Was Yet Dark SSA

This song for three-part treble voices a capella is based on the 1855 hymn-tune Pleading Saviour, which presents the empty tomb at Easter from Mary Magdalene's point of view. This piece offers much scope for phrasing and word painting as the singers recreate the setting from outside the tomb, and explore the psychology of one of the Bible's most famous and timeless characters. For treble voices in three parts (SSA).
