Chaplet of the Holy Face is a musical setting of the text of a Catholic devotion known by the same title. Based on Psalm 68:1, Arise, O Lord and let Thy enemies be scattered, six invocations of this Psalm verse is alternated with the Gloria Patri five times, and concludes with the Psalm verse sung three times, in honor of the 3 year public life of Jesus Christ. The text is sung in reparation for sins that most offend God, the disfiguring facial wounds which Jesus received during His sacred Passion, and to repel and defeat God's enemies. Devotees of the Holy Face Devotion will especially appreciate this powerful work.
This versatile piece may be performed in a number of ways; with a solo voice throughout, a soloist or cantor and group of singers, or for choral singing. The accompaniment will work equally well played on piano or organ, or it could even be sung unaccompanied. It would also be effective sung by a treble or youth choir alternating verses with an adult choir. Suitable for public performance or personal devotional use.
This work may be sung by a individual or a group, or may be sung by a cantor alternating with a group. It is suitable for personal or liturgical use.
