Publisher's Synopsis

for SATB (with divisions) unaccompanied A reflection on the plainchant 'Assumpta est Maria' (originally for the Feast of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary), this setting tenders a festal feel through its dance-like metre and expansive melismas. The chant is carried through the work, at times presented by a solo soprano or in rich choral harmonizations.
