Euge Francisce

This anonymous SATB motet sets a Latin text which draws from the parable of the faithful servant. The opening "Euge Francisce!" ("Well done, Francis!") directly addresses St. Francis, continuing with "good and faithful servant." The text then moves to the promise "Because you have been faithful over little, I will set you over much; enter into the joy of your Lord." The music is intended for sacred use and is typical of the motet genre, a form of sacred choral music. It would be suitable for a choir looking to perform a piece with a devotional text in Latin, celebrating a significant saint and the rewards of faithfulness.
