Description:
Quartel has chosen a powerful combination of texts by Hildegard von Bingen and Mother Teresa for this emotive choral work. The main choir is accompanied by a small ensemble singing the word 'love' with rippling ostinati that reflect the title of the work. The solo cello line contributes lyrical melodic lines, moving into triplet rhythms and broken chords as the piece progresses to its emotive climax.
