Jonathan Palant Choral Series-Here is the beautiful final movement from Giacomo Carissimi's oratorio Jephte. Originally for SATB choir soloist narrator and instruments here is a new arrangement for men that allows them to explore this important musical style. Along with the Baroque style and the Latin text this piece also lends itself to teach legato line imitation and the emotional context of loss and lamentation.
