Christ is risen!
Just wanted to throw this out there, in the hopes that maybe there's music floating around that I haven't heard about. Has anyone composed music in English for the Matins hymn "It is the Day of Resurrection"? It comes up very often over the next few weeks, and I'm going to have to chant it multiple times at my church, so I'm looking for a score to work with.
Thanks!
P.S. An arrangement using the HTM translation would be ideal. I'd use the one by Fr. Seraphim Dedes, but the default version at our church (at least during Orthros) is music using the HTM translation. Just to keep things consistent and whatnot.
P.P.S. Apologies... I wasn't clear enough. When I said "It is the Day of Resurrection," I was referring to the "Both now and ever" of the Praises of the weeks following Pascha, i.e. the Paschal Doxastikon.
