Happy Easter everyone! Spending time with loved ones to celebrate the Christian holiday, Easter, is happening all over the world. To celebrate with you, we have 21 singers in this song ages 6-15. They are singing "Now the Green Blade Riseth" in 3 part harmony, and in the second half of the song, they're singing in 4 part harmony. It's accompanied by the orchestra, with strings, oboe, and percussion.
