First Antiphon (4-Part SATB)
$30.00Price
4-Part (SATB) reduction, adapted for traditional mixed choirs while preserving the integrity of the original setting.
Drawing on Byzantine chant traditions, I explored the flexibility of texture and vocal roles, particularly through varied placement of the ison - sometimes above, sometimes below the melody. The voices shift and rotate as the verses unfold, creating a layered, living sound. This approach reflects the nature of the text itself: a communal plea for salvation, gently supported and enriched by the intercessions of the Theotokos.
