Synopsis

for SATB unaccompanied
These beautiful motets provide inspiring new repertoire for choirs. Locus iste is rhythmic and uplifting; Ave Virgo sanctissima is a gentle setting of a Spanish antiphon, full of sumptuous harmonies; and Beati quorum via contrasts calm, reflective passages with a stirring, eight-part quasi-refrain.
