Deus in adiutorium meum

The opening words "Deus in adiutorium meum" ("O God, make speed to save me") set the tone for this sacred Latin setting. The text continues with pleas for divine assistance and moves into the familiar Gloria Patri, sung to the glory of the Trinity. The composer Simon Biazeck sets this important liturgical text for SSATB choir. The chant-like opening and the solemnity of the accompanying text make this a powerful and devotional work, suitable for liturgical occasions or for concert performance.
