Lat.
My Exs
ultet uses the
ancient chant to which
the Easter Proclamation
is declaimed, normally by
a deacon at the start of
the Great Vigil of
Easter. The chant dates
from somewhere between
the fourth and seventh
centuries and consists of
formulaic repetitions of
simple phrases. I have
elaborated these phrases
canonically, melodically,
and harmonically into a
three-part vocal fabric,
accompanied by obbligato
instruments. The full
text of the original goes
on for quite some time.
My choral-instrumental
version is much
shorter.
Commission
ed by the Young People's
Chorus of New York City
for Transient Glory and
dedicated to Francisco J.
Núñez.
