O Radix
Jesse by Polish composer
Pawe ukaszewski , is
arranged here for
unaccompanied SSAA Chorus
with divisions. Pawe
ukaszewski is part of a
younger generation of
Polish composers who
specialise in sacred and
choral music. After
studying composition and
receiving two
Ph.Ds, ukaszewski
's work has been
performed throughout
Europe and the rest of
the world. This
composition, O
Radix Jesse is a setting
of the Magnificant
antiphons used in
Christian advent and
Catholic Mass. The
haunting harmonies
created by the
unaccompanied chorus in
this composition are sure
to remain with audiences
for a long time, having
been intricately crafted
by this master
ofspiritual music. Please
note that the lyrics are
in Latin. David Lindley,
in the September 2015
issue of the Organists'
Review, writes that
ukaszewski's music is
often compared to that of
Gorecki, Part and John
Tavener, and this piece
manifests the family
resemblance..
