Tillai: Lauda Sion

Informatie

The noted Hungarian choirmaster and composer, born in 1930, set four verses of the Lord's Day sequence of St Thomas Aquinas in this short devout work, which draws on the melody of the original Gregorian sequence. Written in 2011 for the 21st International Chamber Choir Competition in Pécs, the work makes rewarding and attractive material for both professional and amateur choirs to sing. Lauda Sion has also appeared in versions for mixed and for women's choir.
