SANCTUS, SANCTUS. by Nduka Aku — Lyrics
About SANCTUS, SANCTUS.
"Sanctus, Sanctus" is a vibrant Latin setting of the Holy, Holy, Holy, composed by Nduka-aku. Written for four-part choir, the piece brings a rhythmic, driving energy to the Eucharistic acclamation. It is sung during the Liturgy of the Eucharist, right after the Preface, inviting the congregation and choir to join the song of the angels.
The arrangement is characterized by its bright, repetitive "Hosanna in excelsis" phrases that build in joyful momentum. The composer's use of Da Capo and Dal Segno repeats ensures the majestic "Hosanna" rings out triumphantly again after the "Benedictus," making it an uplifting choice for celebratory Masses and feast days.
