Beskrivning

A highly effective and extremely straightforward setting of a text from an inscription over the door into a Jesuit church in Glasgow. The piece begins with a forceful SATB prayer in English calling for Saint Aloysius to ‘pray for us’. The second, more reflective section repeats the prayer in Latin, and the final section is an exact repeat of the first. The optional organ accompaniment merely doubles the vocal parts if pitch needs to be supported.
