I completed "Peace Be With You" for Caritas performances held in June of 2009, although I began the composition in 1992. The text is a near-verbatim rendering of John 20:20-31, which presents the events of Easter Sunday evening (following Mary Magdalene's experience at the tomb) and the following week in the Upper Room. Most of the narration of the story is conveyed through freely metered chant, while the dialogue between Jesus and the disciples, particularly Thomas, is effectively presented in four-voice harmonization. As the title of the selection implies, Jesus' words are set in such a way that they evoke peace. We also hear the fear and doubt of the disciples as well as their awe, exuberance and joy at seeing the Risen Lord. "Peace Be With You" is included on Caritas Chamber Chorale's first CD recording, "Stop Your Doubting."
