A beautiful arrangement of Anton Bruckner's beloved Latin motet 'Locus Iste' (This Place Was Made by God) for SATB choir with keyboard accompaniment, perfect for sacred concerts, church services, and liturgical celebrations.

Ideal for:

  • Church choirs seeking reverent sacred repertoire
  • Concert choirs programming Romantic-era motets
  • Catholic liturgical services and Eucharistic celebrations
  • Easter, dedication services, or special feast days
  • Music festivals featuring sacred choral music
  • College and university choirs

Musical features:
  • Four-part mixed choir (SATB) in traditional voicing
  • Keyboard accompaniment doubling all vocal parts
  • Rich chromatic harmonies characteristic of Bruckner's style
  • Comprehensive dynamics and expression markings
  • Latin text: "Locus iste a Deo factus est" (This place was made by God)
  • Intermediate to advanced difficulty
  • Duration: approximately 3 minutes
  • Key of C major with chromatic modulations

Text & Translation: The Latin text speaks of a sacred place made by God, describing it as an inestimable sacrament and beyond reproach—a powerful message for dedications, consecrations, or any celebration of sacred space.

Performance Notes: The keyboard provides essential harmonic support while doubling the vocal lines, making this arrangement accessible for choirs that may not have access to a cappella-only performances. The dynamics range from pp to f, allowing for expressive shaping of phrases. Attention to the chromatic voice leading will bring out the work's Romantic beauty.

This arrangement honors Bruckner's original while making it accessible for more ensembles through the addition of keyboard accompaniment.
