Ecce ego mitto vos

Ivo de Vento’s motet Ecce ego mitto vos is suitable for use in services during the Easter season or for feasts of apostles and evangelists. The SATB choir sings this sacred Latin text, which comes from the Gospel of Matthew, offering advice to disciples sent out into the world. The composer’s setting reflects the urgency and wisdom of Christ’s words, urging the singers to be prudent as serpents yet simple as doves. This is a powerful motet for experienced choirs, offering a challenging yet rewarding musical and spiritual experience.
