Summary of This Score
"Sacred Songs" brings together a selection of some of the most famous vocal pieces from three major works: "The Armed Man: A Mass for Peace", "Requiem", and "Stabat Mater". You will find notably the "Benedictus" (excerpt from The Armed Man), "Pie Jesu" and "In Paradisum" (excerpts from the Requiem), as well as "Virgo Virginum" (excerpt from Stabat Mater). Designed as a practical collection for choral singing, this content allows for easy construction of a coherent program centered around an accessible and expressive sacred repertoire. The pieces can be performed in the order of the book to form a natural suite, but the organization remains flexible so that musicians and choir directors can adapt the selection to the concert duration, liturgical context, or ensemble size. The presence of Latin and English facilitates diction work and opens the door to varied interpretations, both in rehearsal and performance.
