Os Justi
Composed by Z. Randall Stroope
Voicing: SSATB a cappella Catalog number: AMP 1033 Price: $1.90 About the work Os Justi (“The mouth of the righteous”) was written as a gift to my dear friend, Pablo Colino, Maestro di Cappella Emerito at St. Peter's Basilica in the Vatican. Performers need to give particular attention to liquid consonant connection, proper word accentuation, and long-term commitment to each phrase. Allow longer notes to generate energy, consider rests as “preparatory notes” (not moments of repose), and allow the towering sonorities to vibrant from the singers' “shoe laces to the top of their head.” But most of all, technique, pedagogy, and all matters of interpretation are merely ingredients to the communication of passion and tugging at the soul. Z. Randall Stroope
