Little Motet for Tomorrow

[exchemist]

Our church choir, (including me, just for the Christmas season) will be singing this, Arcadelt's Ave Maria tomorrow at communion:

Arcadelt was Flemish/French and lived in the c.16th, the era of renaissance polyphony, though this simple little piece is really homophonic rather than polyphonic. But it's rather nice and not too taxing for a local church choir.

@Vouthon, @Rival , this is one of the ones I was talking about.

Nice. I hear that tune every day at noon (ten minutes from now for this time zone) on the automated church bells just down the hill. It's not quite the same as what you're doing, but I do like hearing it.
