Audi, soror mea

Sung in Latin, Giulio San Pietro del Negro’s Audi, soror mea is a sacred motet for two-part choir (soprano and bass). The text is a prayer, expressing deep spiritual longing and devotion. The composer uses the intimate language of the Song of Songs to describe the soul’s yearning for God. It is suitable for liturgical use or as a reflective concert piece. The direct address and rich imagery create a powerful sense of intimacy between the singer and the divine. This motet offers a beautiful opportunity to explore expressive vocal performance and devotional text setting. It would provide a meaningful addition to a service or recital programme.
