About Christe eleison
The plea for mercy, Christe eleison, is at the heart of this setting. Argilliano sets the Greek text of the Kyrie, a prayer for mercy, in a substantial work for double choir (SATB.SATB). The repetition and invocation of Christ's name create a solemn and devotional atmosphere, drawing the listener into the ancient plea for divine compassion.
