Franck Panis Angelicus Duet Soprano Score

Soprano Choir Part Practice: Panis Angelicus, César Franck, (1822 -- 1890). Panis angelicus is from the hymn "Sacris solemniis" written by Saint Thomas Aquinas for the Feast of Corpus Christi. César Franck in 1872 set this for voice in his "Messe à trois voix" Opus 12. This version is a duet for Soprano and Tenor. The angelic bread becomes the bread of men; The heavenly bread ends all prefigurations: What wonder! The Lord is eaten by a poor and humble servant. Panis angelicus fit panis hominum; Dat panis coelicus figuris terminum: O res mirabilis! Manducat Dominum Pauper, servus et humilis
