Program note:
Symphony “The Saviour” for orchestra and choir was mainly composed in 2014 and received revisions until 2018. It is divided into three movements: I- “The Creation, The Garden of Eden, and The Fall”; II- “The Incarnation”; and III- “The Passion, Death, Resurrection and Ascension”. The nine choral pieces from the symphony may be sung as independent pieces. The total duration of the nine choral pieces is of approximately 17’45”. The texts were extracted from the 1961 Liber Usualis, following the liturgical instructions, and from the Vulgata.
