Postquam calix Babylonis

• For SATB (with divisi) choir a cappella
• Composed in 2005

Postquam calix Babylonis is my fourth piece based on the Office of St. Olav (c.1170).
The music symbolizes St Olav's arrival in Norway, and alternates the free-flowing
original plainchant of the Sequence with contrasting rhythmical passages.
