Cantus

An anthem or short choral work for mixed choir (with optional solo soprano) and organ or brass ensemble (3 trumpets, 3 trombones, tuba). The solo soprano line may be played on the organ or trumpet. The solo trumpet can be either part of, or additional to, the brass ensemble. A setting of the single word ‘Alleluia’ with music which evokes a heightened, joyful tranquillity.

Full scores and brass parts are available for hire at the OUP link below.
