About Double chant in C major

Richard Thiele's Double Chant in C major offers a dignified setting for SATB voices. It is presented in a straightforward Anglican chant style, suitable for liturgical use. The Latin text, taken from Psalm 101, is a prayer of David, lamenting wrongdoing and seeking righteousness. The chant's clear melodic lines and harmonic progression provide a resonant foundation for the sacred Latin words. It may also be sung in an English translation, allowing for broader accessibility in services. This setting is well-suited for choirs seeking a classic liturgical choral work.
