Sanctus

The fifth movement of Requiem, Sanctus captures the breathtaking moment when souls, freed from darkness, behold the glory of God. Inspired by Martin's Mass for Double Choir, the piece opens with an awe-struck stillness, as soloists introduce the reverent text. Suddenly, the choir erupts into an electrifying rhythmic drive, soaring toward a climactic arrival before dissolving into a luminous, ethereal soundscape. With its dynamic contrasts and rich textures, Sanctus is a thrilling and rewarding challenge for advanced choirs.
