Panis Angelicus - Arranged by Christopher Alexander

PANIS ANGELICUS
Music by César Franck
Arranged by Christopher Alexander
César Franck’s vocal work has become one of the most popular sacred songs of all time. The gentle lyricism of its melody and supportive piano accompaniment (originally written for the church organ), along with its original lyrics by St. Thomas Aquinas, have propelled this work to become universally beloved. It was included in Franck’s Mass for Three Voices in 1860 (though somewhat incomplete at the time), but found its own identity many years later after it had finally been completed. The longer phrases of this work allow the instrument to “sing” and create a serene atmosphere for the audience.
