Sometimes here at Stillsong I begin my Easter with the Exultet --- I will chant it even if I am attending the Vigil at my parish. It is a demanding and wonderful thing to be able to sing and I am glad God hears me!! (I am also often glad only God hears me!! I am not singing in the versions supplied here!!! A reason for added Joy!) Tonight I will join another Community (2, in fact!) where others will sing this song of Easter Praise as we move into the darkness of a Vigil illuminated by the Paschal Candle. Still, as I begin preparations for Easter it seems only right to mark this time here on this blog as well. I hope it enriches your prayer. Happy Easter!!!
This second Exultet is done with choir and soloist(s) in a much more modal version. I really like it a lot.
And, before anyone asks, the two spellings are both correct. Exultet was spelled without an "s" before 1920.
