What better time is there to reaffirm our beliefs as followers of Christ than at Easter? This We Believe is a compelling and praise-filled celebration of the basic tenets of Christianity. From the birth of the Messiah to the promise of the resurrection to Christ’s ultimate return to claim His people, this magnificent collection from the creative artistry of Tom Fettke & Russell Mauldin will touch a special place deep in the hearts of Christians everywhere.
As with all of our releases in the Excel Series, This We Believe has very accessible vocal writing, including solo opportunities for both men and women. This narrated musical is also fully orchestrated and the running time is approximately 36 minutes, an ideal length for Palm Sunday, Easter, Pentecost, or Trinity Sunday. An excellent choral resource throughout the year.
