Cum invocarem exaudivit

The composer Boris von Uexküll sets the Latin text Cum invocarem exaudivit, from Psalm 4, verses 2-3, which speaks of a prayer answered in times of distress. The words express a deep sense of relief and gratitude as God hears the suppliant. This motet for SATB choir is a powerful setting of sacred text, reflecting the composer's engagement with devotional themes. The music offers opportunities for expressive vocal interplay, enhancing the devotional character of the prayer. It is a moving reflection on divine aid and solace when facing hardship.
