Brian--

Selections look good. We are using the "Festival Canticle" as well on Easter Sunday. In the Lutheran Liturgy you can replace the Gloria with the Festival Canticle on any Sunday (outside of Advent and Lent). We'll be using it all throughout Easter, although we'll only be using the festival version on Easter Sunday.
