Instrumentation:
03:00
SSAA Choir
Written for the Denver Pro Chorale Under the direction of Dr. Michael Kornelsen.
Pie Jesu paints a vivid soundscape of wandering souls, adrift between worlds.
Intricate polyphony mirrors their aimless journey, creating unresolved tensions that linger in the air. A striking middle section emerges—a luminous reflection of the opening, now in the relative major, offering a fleeting moment of warmth before returning to the ethereal unknown.
A haunting addition to any choral program.
