Giovanni Pierluigi da Palestrina

Motet

Immerse yourself in the magnificent sound world of sacred vocal polyphony with the festive motet "Princeps gloriosissime, Michael Archangele", published by Schott Musik. Dedicated to the Archangel Michael, this expressive work radiates a profound brilliance through the warm, overtone-rich timbre of a recorder quartet. The flexible instrumentation can be performed with either three soprano recorders and an alto (SSSA) or three sopranos and a tenor (SSST), offering consorts great musical and tonal flexibility. The artfully interwoven lines encourage harmonious ensemble playing and make an uplifting addition to any concert program or chamber music gathering. Available as a convenient digital download (playing score), you can start rehearsing immediately – an inspiring gem for passionate recorder ensembles!
