Requiem aeternam

- G.B Martini / arr. Gary D. Penkala
 
 

Highlights

  • Anthem for 3-part equal voices a cappella
  • Refrain by G.B. Martini alternates with Latin and English verses of Psalm 130
  • Ideal for a small choir at a funeral Mass!

Description

Requiem aeternam is an example of a perfectly simple yet highly effective liturgical setting. A refrain on the text "Requiem aeternam dona eis Domine: et lux perpetua luceat eis" is taken from the Introit for the Requiem Mass ("Eternal rest grant unto them, O Lord: and may perpetual light shine upon them."). This refrain, set by Padre Giovanni Battista Martini (1706-1784) for a cappella 3-part equal voices, alternates with verses of Psalm 130 in Latin and English, using Gregorian tone 2. Requiem aeternam is useful at various places in the funeral Mass and may be sung by a small choir with great success.
