Using the 10th-century plainsong as a point of departure, Morten Lauridsen has composed an exquisite choral rendering that reaches to the deepest corners of the human spirit.

The final restatment of the chant as the "Amen" in the tenor brings closure to this work of unsurpassed beauty by a celebrated American composer.
