John Donne’s famous sonnet, set for unaccompanied SATB choir.
This work is for unaccompanied SATB choir, divided into the Responsories for Maundy Thursday, Good Friday and Holy Saturday. The texts are short biblical passages, to be sung after the lessons of Tenebrae; see the Wikipedia article for more information. These settings are all quite short (about 1 minute on average), so may be suitable for contemporary use.
