Ego Sum Ostium

Crys Armbrust’s Ego Sum Ostium is a powerful setting of words from the Gospel of John. The text speaks of Jesus as the door, through whom believers will find salvation and sustenance. This anthem for double choir (SSATTB) is written in Latin, drawing on the tradition of sacred music. The composer’s setting emphasizes the text’s message of divine provision and access, creating a rich and resonant experience for both performers and listeners. The lush harmonies and contrapuntal lines of the SSATTB voicing provide a compelling and devotional sound world, perfectly suited for liturgical settings or concert programmes seeking profound spiritual reflection.
