O Salutaris Hostia (SS soli, SSAATTBB)

With "O Salutaris Hostia", renowned Latvian composer Ēriks Ešenvalds has created one of the most poignant masterpieces of contemporary choral literature. In this sublime setting for eight-part unaccompanied mixed choir (SSAATTBB) and two solo sopranos, a breathtaking sonic landscape of ethereal beauty and profound spirituality unfolds. The two soprano soloists soar with graceful melodic lines above the rich, layered choral texture, imbuing the traditional Latin text with an unforgettable, radiant glow. Published by Musica Baltica, this choral score is an extraordinary highlight for ambitious chamber and concert choirs—ideally suited for sacred services, choral concerts, and competitions. A truly magical work that captivates singers and audiences alike.
