Ego sum qui sum

Jean Conseil's motet Ego sum qui sum is a striking setting for STTTB voices. The Latin text, drawing from scripture, opens with the powerful declaration 'I am who I am', contrasting divine presence with the ungodly, before affirming that God's law is where the composer's will lies. The text then moves to a passage of slumber and awakening, signifying resurrection and divine support, marked by exultant Alleluias. Conseil's composition likely explores the profound theological statements of the text through rich, resonant vocal textures suitable for sacred performance. This work offers a profound musical meditation on divine identity and redemptive power, presented in a compelling, multi-choral format.
