Jointly commissioned in 2011 by four choirs around the world (Netherlands, Australia, England and Sweden), this large-scale choral work sets the words of all six parts of the ordinary of the Mass (the "Credo" was composed in 1972). The characteristic rich, soothing harmonies, beautifully-shaped, sometimes haunting melodies and variety of texture create an evocative and devotional work, challenging in places but ultimately fulfilling for both performers and audience. A recording with the Latvian Radio Choir directed by Sigvards Klava is available from the lable Ondine (ODE1223-2). Instrumentation : mixed choir (SATB) a cappella
This large-scale choral work was commissioned in 2011 by four choirs around the world (Netherlands, Australia, England and Sweden). The characteristic rich, soothing harmonies alongside the beautifully-shaped and sometimes haunting melodies create an evocative and devotional work, which with the variety of texture succeeds in forming a piece that is challenging in places but ultimately fulfilling for both performers and audience. "The challenge with this piece was to avoid monotony. Creating a large a cappella work demands constant variation of the texture". - Einojuhani Rautavaara Besetzung : mixed choir (SATB) a cappella
