VOCES8 sings William Byrd's sumptuous setting of 'O Saluters Hostia' at the VOCES8 Centre in London.

TEXT
O salutaris Hostia,
Quae caeli pandis ostium:
Bella premunt hostilia,
Da robur, fer auxilium.

TRANSLATION
O saving Victim,
Who expandest the door of heaven,
Hostile armies press,
Give strength; bear aid.

This music edition was created by former member of VOCES8, Jonathan Pacey. ​​​​​​​​
