About Ehre sei Gott
Sing this joyous German motet by Jan Pieterszoon Sweelinck, Ehre sei Gott, for your next important sacred occasion. Its five-part SSATB voicing is ideal for a fully-resourced choir, and the text speaks of glory to God the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, culminating in praise to the Holy Trinity. Sweelinck's mastery of counterpoint and harmonic richness will bring this text to life, offering a profound musical experience for both performers and listeners alike. This motet is a superb choice for a choir seeking to expand its repertoire with significant Renaissance sacred music.
