Description:
Tantum Ergo was commissioned in 2012 by the Muscia Viva Summer Wind Band, in Triuggio, Italy. The 13th century Gregorian text, Pange Lingua from Thomas Aquinas was taken as the start point to describe the extremes of human nature arising from religion, peace, violence, war, reflection, symbolically shown as a disorderly parade. Finally the original theme returns in a grandiose form, as a model of human reason and the as yet unwritten future.
