SATB a cappella with Solo Soprano and Tenor SKU: PL.PPM02175M
Composed by Samuel Backman. Octavo. Paraclete Press #PPM02175M. Published by Paraclete Press (PL.PPM02175M). This sophisticated motet is reminiscent of the Renaissance, with its elegant polyphony and imaginative changes of texture. Based on the 11th century Marian antiphon for Advent, Samuel Backman has also included the chorale Es ist ein Ros’ in German and English, to make this a versatile anthem for both Advent and Christmas. Great for carol services.
