Equally suitable for Advent and Marian feasts, this sprightly little musical gem can be sung by an intermediate children's choir or any choir of men, women, or mixed voices in two parts. Try including it in your choir's repertoire as a choral warmup or sung prayer. Then you'll have it ready when the occasion callsfor something elegant in praise of our Blessed Mother. For this track we have recorded the 2-part women singing a whole step lower starting on G, the 2-part men's version begins on A as presented in the octavo.

Schubert's Antiphons for Palm Sunday., Opus 113, are a set of four easy liturgical motets for a cappella .choir. A singable English translation is provided with the original Latin.
