Voices of Connection: 04/24 Palestrina: Tu es Petrus
Another member of our audience, Ro Sheffe, requested this terrific ceremonial motet, normally used at Papal Masses. He calls it “a very lively and joyous piece, especially when played at a high volume!” Thanks, Ro. I agree it’s one of Palestrina’s best upbeat motets. A note to our audience: if you have a piece we have done that you would like to hear, send us an email to the address above.
