Ascendit

This setting of Ascendit in coelum Dominus vere offers a powerful and uplifting musical expression of the Ascension of our Lord. The Latin text, traditionally sung at Eastertide, describes Christ ascending to heaven, accompanied by the exultant cry of Alleluia. Joseph Furmanik crafts a compelling anthem for SATB choir that captures the solemnity and joy of this pivotal moment in Christian belief. The music is designed to enhance the sacred text, providing choir directors with a resonant and impactful choice for services or concerts seeking to convey the triumph of the Resurrection and the glory of Christ’s return to the Father.
