Pipelare's St. John Credo


The Credo de Sancto Johanne Evangelista is a work of grandiose proportions. It seems to be intended for use on the Day of St. John, Apostle and Evangelist, December 27. The work is in five voice-parts and contains the plainsong antiphon Occurit beato Johanni ab exilio, which appears twice as a cantus firmus in the tenor. The antiphon is no longer in the liturgy.
