A version for 3 part mixed choir (Soprano, Alto and Men) and organ is also available at: http://dwsolo.musicaneo.com/sheetmusic/sm-185192_mass_for_three_part_mixed_choir_and_organ.html Because of its gently exotic modal flavours, the music was deemed to have a ring of "oriental promise" by one appreciative member of the congregation at the first performance. This setting has been sung in Cathedrals in Manchester, Southwell and Dublin and the Agnus has also featured in services at Christ Church Didsbury. The recording here is the Agnus Dei sung by the Voluntary Choir of Manchester Cathedral during their visit to Southwell Minster.  less

主，天主的羔羊 Domine Deus, Agnus Dei 這段不朽的樂章與第二段相得益彰。F大調夾著d小調，緩慢卻充滿內聚力。它以深沉的女 低音獨唱以及合唱團的回應，獨唱部分是主要旋律線，合唱部分的回應則是和聲式的複音織 體，有再一次強調的感覺，有力地將人類祈求「上帝羔羊的憐憫」之聲表達得淋漓盡致。 獨唱: 詹喆君(女中音) 指揮: 翁佳芬 伴奏: 巴洛克獨奏家樂團 時間: 2007/12/11 地點: 高雄市文化中心至德堂
