Description:
The Musica Dei donum series makes accessible to performers a variety of interesting and generally lesser-known Renaissance vocal works. The titles in the series are presented in practical format, with the aim of retaining a 'clean' text on the page that is authentic to the original manuscripts while at the same time offering performance suggestions for those who wish to consider them. This edition reconstructs two breathtaking motets. The text by St Francis of Assisi, incorporating the phrase 'we do not know the day or the hour when the Lord will come', is appropriate for the end of the Church Year and during Advent. These elegant, straightforward settings are within the abilities of most church choirs.
