Ecce virgo concipiet et pariet filium

The prophecy of a child to be born, Immanuel, God with us, is expressed in this motet for SATB choir. The text draws from Isaiah chapter 9, a passage often associated with the Nativity. The composer is anonymous, leaving us to appreciate the music itself. This sacred motet combines Hebrew and Latin text, reflecting the profound theological significance of the message. Its structure for four-part choir offers rich harmonic possibilities, making it a compelling choice for liturgical settings or concerts exploring the Advent and Christmas themes.
