From Piae Cantiones (1582) this setting of Gaudete is in a progressive style yet well suited to the medieval melody. Its energy is derived from the accented rhythms and dance-like percussive elements all adding to the joyous nature of this piece. With 4-player percussion accompaniment (score and parts available separately). Also available for TTBB divisi. Duration: ca. 4:45.
