About Haec dies
Oliver Hayes's Haec dies is a jubilant SATB setting of a Latin Easter text. The words, drawn from Psalm 118, celebrate the triumph of Christ's resurrection, proclaiming "This is the day the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it." The composer crafts a vibrant and energetic musical response to the liturgical verses for Easter Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday, amplifying the exultant "alleluia" with joyful fervor. This motet is an ideal choice for Eastertide, offering a powerful and uplifting expression of faith for a choir and congregation.
