Howard Goodall : Beati III: Pro eis solitariis (For those that are lonely)

Written for the Enchanted Voices CD, this is one of many settings of texts either from the Beatitudes (or springing from them) available from this composer. For Solo and SS divisi, a cappella, the music has a light, ethereal feeling. "Beati" can be taken as a sort of "Blessed are they" prefix for the movements which are not direct quotes from the Beatitudes. This movement is a unison, chant-like setting of the Latin texts for Genesis 20:13 ("Thou shalt do me this kindness...") and Numbers 11:17 ("And I will take of thy spirit"). The soloist begins and sometimes takes over from the choral voices. Mostly unison except for about ten measures (out of the 69) in two-part texture and four measures in three parts. Duration 4:39
