This uplifting and compelling cantata from Nick Perrin presents the Easter story in seven songs with short linking narratives. Adapted from the popular musical The Gospel Show , Roll Back The Stone conveys great dramatic intensity through its vivid lyrics and effective variety of different musical styles. Ideal for KS2 assembly and choir presentations. The cantata opens with a brand new song - Hosanna Jesus - that tells of the journey along crowd-lined roads into Jerusalem. The story then moves on to Judas’ betrayal, the Last Supper, Jesus’ trial, mockery and crucifixion, finishing with the joyful resurrection song Roll Back The Stone . Excellent! Good variety of songs and melodies - very in tune with children's musical enjoyment. Well written, child friendly and perfect for our Easter service. Angela Hook - Teacher, East Sussex.
