Description:
An a cappella setting of this famous text and tune that incorporates choral improvisation—well, at least the simultaneous random singing of a given part by each singer of the choir—Latin and English texts, with the former sung to an original melody, and the latter set to a 2-voice 4/4 scoring of the chant tune. There's a lot here, and we hope, if this commentary arouses some interest, you'll give it a look.
