Sanctus

for SSAATTBB unaccompanied Hazzard's enchanting Sanctus, setting text from the Latin Mass, captures the feeling of a rushing current throughout. Though the energy often pulsates below the surface, it bursts through at the zestful exclamations of 'Hosanna!' where Hazzard introduces complex metres, body percussion, and a balance of slow-building swells and sudden dynamic changes. Suitable for concert use, this piece features imaginative text-setting and driving rhythms that create an engaging experience for singers and listeners alike.
