CGE122 O Vos Omnes (SSA)
Description
This distinctive setting of the mournful scriptural text begins with an introspective, chant-like introduction that belies the fiery torrent of personal frustration and rage to come. With the incessant drum-like drubbing of octaves in the piano bolstering an equally accented choral outburst, the passionate pathos of sorrow expressed within the text is fully realized and understood. A beautiful legato section provides contrast before building anew, taking us to a dynamically intense finale. A stunning, dramatic showcase for concert or festival!
