Beyond the Days
With a keen understanding of the relationship between spiritual musicians and liturgical leaders, Father Ricky Manalo has turned his considerable talents toward filling liturgical niches within the Lenten, Triduum and Easter seasons for which little or no music exists.
By thematically linking the songs featured on Beyond the Days, Father Ricky provides structural composition throughout the key signatures that allows the tracks to flow together and outlines the movement from Lent through Easter. This creative technique culminates in the delivery of the Lenten psalms, wherein the melody and refrains stay the same, but the text changes to allow them to be sung from week to week.
The accompanying songbooks provide everything necessary to aid the choir as they lead the assembly in the singing of these songs. The easy-to-learn, repeating melodies in this must-have resource will be a welcome addition in any parish for the Lenten and Easter seasons.
