O Viridissima Virga

This new vocal part make this powerful work available to choruses at a more affordable price. Diemer’s setting of this favorite text by Hildegard von Bingen, builds slowly to a punctuated fortissimo, before winding down to a final, long and fading chord. The better high school or college choirs will enjoy the dynamics and flow of this sumptuous work, easily a centerpiece on the program.
