Description:

Michael Joncas has constructed a setting of the Magni cat based on a “psalm tune,” a memorable yet variable melody that grows in intensity and density as it progresses, yet remains accessible, even to smaller choirs. Extensive notes, including textual/musical issues and liturgical use suggestions, are given.
