Tomas
o Albinoni‚ Adagio
has inspired this
alluring choral
adaptation by prolific
composer No?´l
Goemanne. Hints of this
classic melody are found
throughout the four-part
texture. Beginning with a
simple pulse in the
keyboard, the men state
the initial theme in
unison and fifths. The
vocal writing takes some
interesting harmonic
turns and contains
wonderful solo passages.
A keyboard interlude
introduces a duet between
soprano and tenor and
leads us to a concluding
homophonic choral
section. Agnus Dei will
also serve well as a
concert performance
piece.
