2 soloists, SSA choir, cello, organ, and synthesizer - Moderately Easy - Digital Download SKU: MQ.56-0023-E Composed by Howard Goodall. 9 pages. Duration 4 minutes, 10 seconds. MorningStar Music Publishers - Digital Sheet Music #56-0023-E. Published by MorningStar Music Publishers - Digital Sheet Music (MQ.56-0023-E). Latin. Matthew 5:3-11.Written for the Enchanted Voices CD, this is one of many settings of texts either from the Beatitudes (or springing from them) available from this composer. For two soprano soloists and SA treble chorus (marked Soprano I and Soprano II in the score), cello, organ, and synthesizer, the music has a light, ethereal feeling. The Beatitudes text is set here entirely in Latin. Beginning in a meditative chant-like style, the music moves to a sort of dialogue duet, sometimes between the two soprano sections and sometimes between the two soloists. The music is sweet, lyrical, and calm. Duration 4:10Instrumentalists play from the choral score.
