Opis

for SATB and organ or piano or orchestra Setting a well-loved medieval text, this effective piece paints the story of Jesus through lyrical melodies and beautiful harmonic surprises. The vocal lines offer both powerful intensity and skilful dialogue, and are supported by a pulsing keyboard part. Also available in a version for soprano or upper voices (unison or two-part), and organ or piano.
