Four Double Choir Motets
Gallus, Jacob arr. Ann Marshall
8 SATBSATB. Jacob Gallus (1550-1591) was, and still is, also known as Handl. He was Slovenian, but worked for most of his life in Austria. His output was enormous, including much complex multichoir music. Ann has selected four of his more straightforward double choir pieces, but there is still a lot going on in this music, in terms of harmony and interplay between the choirs.
