Celebramus

In this impressive festival work by Jacob Narverud, a fanfare-like introduction sets an exuberant tone for the celebratory secular Latin text. Crisp, accented vocal motives echo to build layered textures before transitioning to a sophisticated B-section with legato lines. The piano accompaniment provides a solid foundation and many jubilant flourishes, with or without the optional cello and French horn obbligatos. An extraordinary selection for concert or contest!
