"Christ Our Passover," Richard Dirksen

[Charlestheverger]

I was told by one of the Crystal Cathedral musicians that Pastor and Mrs. Schuller didn't like anything in a minor key.

There is a video of a choir performing Macfarlane's setting here on YouTube, just search for it. The composers name is misspelled as "McFarlane."

Thank you hbthomson!

The only recording of Macfarlane's that I know of is on a CD by the choir of the Cathedral of the Advent in Birmingham, Alabama. The tempo is slower than my preference, but it's still nice to have a recording of it.

Scurvyoaks do you know of any recordings of Macfarlane's Christ our Passover

I wonder why this was never performed on easter by the Crystal Cathedral.

[ScurvyOaks]

Well sung, but I can't imagine why anyone would choose the Dirksen setting over MacFarlane's.

@ScurvyOaks Well I do.
