Composed by Gabriel Jackson. Sacred choral - mixed voices. New Horizons. Sacred, Choral Leaflet. Vocal score. 16 pages. Duration 7'. Oxford University Press #9780193355491. Published by Oxford University Press (OU.9780193355491).ISBN 9780193355491. 10 x 7 inches.
For SATB (with divisions) unaccompanied. This is a deeply compelling setting of the familiar text. The piece commences with a series of contemplative exchanges between the upper and lower voices; the ensuing, unexpected changes of key and texture are potently effective, and typical of Jackson's compositional style. This very fine motet is suitable for the Feast of the Blessed Virgin Mary and for concert purposes.
