Robert G. Farrell has selected historical and beloved Eucharistic texts for these three brief motets all collected under one cover. His sources include the book of Wisdom, the writings of St. Thomas Aquinas, and a hymn rich with communion imagery. Robert's musical language features graceful melodic movement, and the kind of delicate dissonances and textural and dynamic contrasts often associated with the choral works of Morten Lauridsen. If your choir is moderately skilled, these a cappella Latin motets with the occasional divisi in the SATB texture will prove to be a very satisfying adventure for singers and your congregation. English translations are included for each motet.
