I’ve been preparing for my research trip to Ravenna, Italy, in October. As part of the process I want to record my interviews with various professors at the Polo di Ravenna-Universita di Bologna. My son encouraged me to get an ipod with attendant voice recorder. Of course, once the ipod arrived I began loading it up with music. I came to Entre Terre et Ciel, Choeur des moines de Chevetogne http://www.monasterechevetogne.com/index.php?taalkeuze=3 . As I was listening to the first track I was filled with joy.
Joy. What could be more joyous than Christ arising from the dead? The essence of what makes us Christians and the basis of why we are all reading this book Sources/Roots together.
I decided to share this beautiful music with you.
Priest: Blessed is our Lord, now, and ever, and unto ages of ages.
Choir: Amen.
Priest and deacon: Christ is risen from the dead, trampling down Death by death, and upon those in the tomb bestowing life (3x).
Prist and deacon: Let God arise, and let his enemies be scattered, and let them also that hate him flee before him.
Choir: Christ is risen from the dead…
Priest and deacon: Like as the smoke vanisheth, so shall they vanish, and like as wax melteth at the fire.
Choire: Christ is risen from the dead…
Priest and deacon: Even so let the ungodly perish at the presence of God, but let the righteous rejoic.
Choir: Christ is risen from the dead…
Priest and deacon: This is the day which the Lord hath made we will rejoice and be glad in it.
Choir: Christ is risen from the dead…
Priest and deacon: Glory to the Father, and so the Son, and to the Holy Spirit.
Choir: Christ is risen from the dead…
Priest and deacon: Now, and ever, and unto ages of ages. Amen.
