Alleluia! (Psalm 7)

The Easter Vigil marks a profound moment in the liturgical year: the return of the "Alleluia" after forty days of Lenten silence. When the priest intones it and the choir responds, a wave of joy washes over the congregation. This short, vibrant setting of "Alleluia! (Psalm 7)" captures that exact feeling of sudden, radiant light breaking through the darkness of the Triduum.

Written in four-part harmony, the piece moves with a steady, majestic rhythm. The voices build on each other, carrying the single word "Alleluia" through rising and falling cadences before settling into a peaceful, resonant final chord. It is a beautiful, accessible acclamation for a choir to sing during the Gospel procession of the Easter Vigil, announcing the Resurrection with clarity and grace.
