In illo tempore dixit Jesus discipulis suis

In illo tempore dixit Jesus discipulis suis paints a scene from the Gospels as Jesus prepares his disciples for the coming of the Holy Spirit. The text, in Latin, draws directly from the Gospel of John, speaking of the Paraclete, the Spirit of Truth, who will bear witness to Christ. Denis Briant’s motet, for SATTB voices, captures the solemnity and spiritual depth of this moment. The polyphony unfolds with a rich texture, reflecting the profound theological significance of Christ's promise to send the Comforter. This sacred work is a powerful setting of scripture, suitable for services or concerts where contemplation of the Holy Spirit's role is desired.
