About Currebant duo
The Latin text of this sacred song recounts the biblical scene of two disciples running to the tomb. One disciple outruns Peter, arriving first. The composer Giovanni Battista Riccio sets this narrative in a brief but dramatic TT setting. The repeated Alleluia at the end adds a joyful affirmation to the disciples' discovery.
