Composed in 1903, George Chadwick's Morn's Roseate Hues is one of the most attractive short Easter anthems to come from the 'Second New England School,' of which he was a leading member. There are short, appealing solos for bass and alto on verses of The Strife is o'er, a familiar melody, which derives from Palestrina. The two integrated hymn texts are framed by Alleluia refrains, and the anthem concludes with a stirring fugue.
