Description/Remarks

PEL2024 Sanctus and Benedictus is a companion piece to PEL2002 Agnus Dei (Winter's Dream). Glorious harmonies filled with the light of the angels. Beautiful melodic lines and interesting rhythmic features. Very hip angels, indeed!  Like PEL2002 Agnus Dei, this carries the unique ‘voice’ of soprano saxophone.
