For the discerning choir, a lovely setting of the Latin "Benedictus." A haunting melodic motive is underscored by a gently lilting piano accompaniment as your choir performs this highly expressive and sophisticated work. Each voice part sings in its most comfortable range as the hushed opening builds to a dramatic forte "Hosanna" in the middle of the piece, and then gradually fades as the opening statement returns. Top quality, contemporary choral writing. Translation and pronunciation guides are in the publication.
