For SATB and chamber ensemble A splendid curtain-raiser to Vivaldi's Gloria, Durante's artful Magnificat has long been misattributed to his pupil Pergolesi. Durante's vocally richer five-voice version has been chosen for Sacred Choruses and merits performance as an alternative to the familiar four-voice version.
