Victoria "O Magnum Mysterium"--SSA adaptation and recording
-
Friends, Happy New Year!
I adapted Victoria's "O Magnum Mysterium" at the request of the Sister Servants of the Eternal Word for their SSA trio. They sent me a recording yesterday...and they rock!
I sent the recording and the SSA score via my English Motets mailing list which you can find here:

Just gave this a listen, and while I'm not the biggest fan of watering down a piece of art, the sisters here did a very satisfactory job of turning it into a 3 voice piece. Good job to them and very good recording.Thanked by 1Heath

The voice crossing at the end to put the middle part on the lead and suspension-resolution in the top voice actually really works.Thanked by 1Heath
