About Amen
From the German Renaissance composer Michael Praetorius, this setting of Amen is a brief but powerful motet for SATB choir. Written in Latin, it is suited for sacred occasions and would be an effective closing statement for a service or a standalone piece within a concert programme. The straightforward affirmation of 'Amen' is amplified by Praetorius's harmonic language and the full texture of the choir, creating a resonant and conclusive sound.
