OCTAVO SPOTLIGHT
If You Love Me
Matthew Koraus
This setting of the famous passage from John 14 may be sung by ensembles large and small. Written for SATB choir, the composer has also included an optional organ accompaniment that, if played, can bring added color and depth to the piece even when it is possible to sing the piece a cappella. “If You Love Me” is the Communion Antiphon for the Sixth Sunday of Easter and is well suited for use throughout the Easter season.

OCP’s gift [of an OCP Parish Grant] has revitalized the music for our Spanish-language celebrations. We have discovered wonderful new hymns [in the Flor y Canto, cuarta edición hymnals purchased with the grant], and we no longer have to provide Worship Aids for many other recent publications we enjoy singing. Thank you very, very much, OCP!”
