Constitues eos principes

Constitues eos principes is a setting for two-part choir of a Latin text drawn from the Mass propers. The words speak of God appointing rulers over his people, a theme that lends itself to music of solemnity and authority. The composer Arnold Joseph Monar sets this text with a clear and direct musical language, suitable for SATB choirs. The SA voicing allows for a rich blend of voices, creating a powerful sonority for this sacred work.
