For
SSAATTBB unaccompanied A
challenging yet delicate
anthem, with subtle
key-signature changes,
vocal divisions in up to
eight parts, and
alternating homophonic
and polyphonic passages,
the piece combines
excerpts from the
synonymous medieval hymn
and Wordsworth's poem The
Virgin, making it
especially suitable for
celebrations of the
Blessed Virgin Mary.
