A gorgeous contemporary setting of this canticle with piquant and close harmonies. Sometimes chordal and homophonic, sometimes more rhythmic and active, the music is sweet and well-balanced. Occasionally expanding to a full eight parts, this requires a capable and sensitive ensemble and is well worth the effort.
