Note: This beautiful motet, originally for choir, strings and organ, was composed in 1791, just a few months before Mozart’s untimely death. It is a favorite for celebrating the Feast of Corpus Christi, for which it was written, and it is also much-requested for weddings, funerals, and eucharistic rites.
