Product Description
Perfect for a multicultural celebration, Easter, Mass, World Communion Sunday, or other sacred occasion - Spanish language with a Venezuelan rhythm and virtuosic piano part
Santo y Hosanna (2020) by Adrienne Inglis, commissioned by Inversion as part of its collaborative requiem project
Be near me when my light is low, sets a modified version of the Spanish liturgical Sanctus Benedictus text for mixed choir and piano. Referenced in the startling narrative of Isaiah 6, this remarkable prayer to God reacts to the sacred call to Christians-apathetic, unclean, stingy-to go to the difficult, tough places in the world to offer compassion, peace, and mercy. The choral passages reveal amazement and gratitude while the piano both dazzles with divine glory and squirms with human reluctance. The interplay between the B Phrygian and C Lydian modes reflects struggle between apathy and compassion, stinginess and mercy, darkness and peace. The rhythm is loosely based on Venezuelan merengue style.
The music you purchase and download here contains the full score, a piano score, and a vocal score with piano reduction.
