Discite a me

The composer Michael Haller sets a sacred text in Greek and Latin for SATB choir. The words are drawn from Matthew 11:28-30, where Jesus invites those who are weary and burdened to come to him and find rest. He offers his own 'yoke' and 'burden', which he describes as 'good' and 'light', in contrast to the heavy loads that others might impose. This motet likely explores themes of spiritual comfort, humility, and divine grace, offering a moment of quiet reflection and solace to the listener. The SATB voicing provides rich harmonic possibilities for conveying the devotional message of the text.
