About Domine, quis habitabit

The text asks "Lord, who shall dwell in your tabernacle? or who shall rest upon your holy hill?" and sets out the virtues required of those who would approach God. This is a profound exploration of righteousness and integrity, requiring a singer to have a clear mind and voice. Robert Parsons' setting is for SSAATB or SSTTBarB voices, a rich combination that allows for deep sonority and expressive phrasing. The Latin text, drawn from Psalm 15, is treated with a dignified and devotional intensity, making this motet a powerful addition to sacred choral repertoire.
