About Dicite pusillamines|{{NoCo|Advent Motets
John Reager’s Dicite pusillamines is a motet for SATB choir singing in Latin. The music opens with a sense of gentle warmth, building to moments of confident assertion. The text, drawn from Isaiah, speaks of reassurance and coming salvation, a message perfectly captured in the choir’s interplay. The voices weave together, sometimes homophonically, sometimes in closer imitation, their rich harmonies supporting the hopeful prophecy. This is a moving anthem for Advent, fitting for services or concerts where a message of comfort and divine promise is desired, offering a rewarding challenge for a capable choir.
