A single movement, sacred work for Chorus and Wind Band, uses Mary’s hymn glorifying God as a text and creative launch point.

With brass lines soaring majestically within towering choral counterpoint, this work is a statement of celebration as much as solemnity.

Stabat Mater, which translates as Standing Mother, is the 13-century Latin hymn describing Mary’s anguish as she stands by the foot of the Cross.
