About Ego sum pastor bonus II
Mariano Garau’s Ego sum pastor bonus II is a moving setting of the Latin text from the Gospel of John. The composer has chosen a substantial six-part SSAABB voicing, allowing for rich harmonic exploration and intricate contrapuntal interplay between the voice parts. The alleluias provide moments of brightness and reflection, interspersed with the core message of Christ as the good shepherd who knows his sheep and is known by them. The music captures the devotional spirit of the text, offering a profound and sonically impressive experience for a capable choir.
