Iustorum animae - mixed choir a cappella. Partition de chœur.

Andreas Pieper, born in 1958, studied church music at the Staatliche Hochschule für Musik Westfalen-Lippe and composition with Roland Ploeger at the Lübeck Music Academy. In 2002, he was among the prize-winners of the composition competition of the European music festival 'Windrose' as part of the Ruhr Festival. From meditative simplicity to the brilliant 'Alleluja', the atmospherically dense motet 'Justorum animae' interprets a famous text from the 'Book of Wisdom' about the hope of men beyond their transitoriness.
Instrumentation : mixed choir a cappella
