About Ecce quam bonum
Andreas Hakenberger's motet Ecce quam bonum is a substantial work for double choir (SSAT.ATTB). Written in Latin and Hebrew, it belongs to the tradition of sacred polyphony. The text, drawn from Psalm 133, expresses the joy and beauty of brothers dwelling together in unity. Hakenberger's setting, with its rich eight-part texture, creates a sonorous and devotional atmosphere, perfectly suited to the psalm's message of communal harmony and spiritual fellowship. This motet offers a profound musical exploration of a universally cherished theme, ideal for experienced choirs seeking challenging and rewarding repertoire.
