  • Vexilla regis prodeunt, for a cappella chorus, WAB51
    Year: c.1892
    Genre: Other Choral
    Pr. Instrument: Chorus/Choir
This motet is a contemplative and often ecstatic setting for unaccompanied chorus of a Passion hymn from the Roman Breviary. It features straightforward modal melodic lines that sometimes move in bare octaves and often progress amid confident consonant harmonies. The ending is harmonically austere.
