Arranged for SATB choir, two keyboards, strings, and optional harp, with soprano, tenor (optional) and baritone soloists, this fresh and unorthodox interpretation reflects on the words of the Latin Mass by juxtaposing them with poems in English. Like movement 2, also called “Revelation,” this movement is a rapid, homophonic declamation of the Latin text set for SATB and accompaniment. The music is a dynamic crescendo from pianissimo to fortissimo, painting the text. Duration 1:18 |
