Motette
Pro Pace Motets for Unaccompanied Chorus is a set of three motets using text from three medieval writers to explore the theme of peace. The music incorporates early modes as well as making effective use of free atonality all witha thorough grounding in compositional structure. Each of the movements for unaccompanied Chorus has slightly different voicing SAATBB, SATB and SSATBB which should satisfy an ambitious Chorus. The first movement, LiberaPlebem, transforms a medieval prayer for deliverance from the Black Death into a more general prayer for deliverance from destruction. The second movement is a Lament for the invention of weaponry. The third movement, OTristiaSecla Priora, celebrates Christ’s ultimate non-violent victory.John Joubert is a contemporary composer of South African birth who has lived, worked and taught in the UK for the whole of his adult life. He isparticularly celebrated for his Choral works, though his oeuvre includes symphonies, operas, chamber music and other works.
