Voices of Connection: 02/06 Victoria: O Quam Gloriosum

VICTORIA O Quam Gloriosum

Voices of Ascension
Dennis Keene, Artistic Director

from the Delos recording Beyond Chant ℗ 1994 Delos
The singers in these performances are represented by the American Guild of Musical Artists, AFL-CIO.

The great Spanish Renaissance composer Victoria may be best known for his mystical, deeply emotive works. But this motet is pure joy! I love the beginning where Victoria sets the first few words as if suspended in time. Then it just breaks forth and flows on unhindered until the very end.
