Hosanna in the Highest

This piece features a refrain drawn from Matthew 21:9 with verses that trace Christ’s entry into Jerusalem, his Good Friday journey to the cross, and the Church’s call to lay down our lives before the Lord. Somber and reflective, the music is both memorable and expressive, with phrasing that deepens the text’s sense of longing and reverence. Especially fitting for Palm Sunday, it is also well suited for Christ the King, Advent, and Epiphany liturgies, making it a versatile selection for ensembles.
