Product Description

"Agnus dei" for high or medium Solo Voice and Organ uses as an inspiration the melody from the aria "Ombra mai fú" from Handels opera Serse. The long, lyrical melody borne forward by the steady, quiet, powerful accompaniment conveys a tranquil sacredness. The sense of entreaty and desire for benediction expressed in the "Agnus Dei" seems a natural fit with Handels famous melody. An instrumental introduction precedes the voice calling out "agnus dei, qui tollis peccata mundi." A solo instrumental meditation follows leading back to the conclusion of the piece. Arrangements for other ensembles are also available (SSA, SAB, SATB) as well as featuring the addition of Solo Violin, Flute, Oboe or Clarinet and soloist with chorus. Difficulty is moderate for both the singer and pianist and is suitable for a sacred setting or the concert hall. Duration approximately 4 minutes. Also available in piano versions
