In Paradisium for Ssaattbb Choir, Viola and Violoncello (Full Score): Choral Octavo

Accompanied by solo viola and cello, whose fluttering tremolandos represent the gently-beating wings of angles who lead us into paradise, it is a setting of the Requiem Mass antiphon that is sung as the body is taken from the church for burial. ... the choral writing is homophonic throughout, while strings sing a series of exquisite descants that eventually achieve an eternal rest" as their star-like harmonics fade into eternity. -from notes by Gabriel Jackson (C) 2015 Composed in loving memory of Irma Esenvalde (1922-2012)."
