Dominick Argento: Farewell This World!: TTBB: Vocal Score

Format : Vocal Score

from Te Deum (Verba Domini cum verbis populi)-The anonymous Middle English text is a beautiful poignant contemplation of mortality and Argento's setting of it casts a quiet haunting spell. The men's chorus is occasionally joined by an insistent single chime note. The complete major work Te Deum (979-0-051-32380-7) was performed at the 2017 National ACDA Conference in Minneapolis.
