Gloria Patri et Filio [Alf:00-47614]

From master composer Antonio Vivaldi's Laetatus Sum (a setting of Psalm 121), this edition brings the brief work to today's choirs. Featuring an accessible Latin text and a lively optional cello part, this well-crafted arrangement is an ideal introduction to many of the conventions of Baroque style, including terraced dynamics and the alternation between a small group (or soloist) and the full ensemble.
