"Os justi" Rodolfus Foundation

“Os justi” is a sacred choral motet composed by the Austrian composer Anton Bruckner. The piece is based on a Latin text from the Book of Wisdom, which reads “Os justi meditabitur sapientiam, et lingua ejus loquetur judicium,” meaning “The mouth of the righteous speaks wisdom, and his tongue talks of judgment.” Bruckner composed the piece in 1879 for the choir of the St. Florian Monastery, where he served as the organist.
“Os justi” is characterized by its rich, sonorous harmonies and its use of subtle rhythmic and melodic variations to create a sense of organic development throughout the piece. The motet is often regarded as one of Bruckner’s finest choral works, and it has been praised for its deep spirituality and expressive power.
The piece is typically performed by a mixed choir a cappella, although some arrangements exist for accompanied versions. “Os justi” has become a popular selection for choral performances and recordings, and it is considered a cornerstone of the sacred choral repertoire.

Schenkingen
University endowments are comprised of money or other financial assets that are donated to academic institutions. Charitable donations are the primary source of funds for endowments. Endowment funds support the teaching, research, and public service missions of colleges and universities. In the case of endowment funds for academic institutions, the income generated is intended to finance a portion of the operating or capital requirements of the institution. Today we will pick through few reports where safety and sustainability claims are listed and described.

"Adiemus" Marianum High School
https://youtu.be/3XU1wNYBnOk
“Adiemus” is a song composed by Welsh composer Karl Jenkins, which was first featured on his album “Adiemus: Songs of Sanctuary” in 1995. The song is performed by a vocal ensemble and features a unique blend of world music influences, including African and Latin American rhythms, along with classical choral arrangements.
The lyrics of “Adiemus” are not based on any specific language or culture. Instead, the vocalists perform with syllables and sounds that create a non-lexical vocable language, which is intended to be universal and accessible to people from all cultures and backgrounds.
The overall message of the song is one of unity and harmony, with a focus on the power of music to bring people together. The composer has described the piece as a celebration of the human voice and the beauty of the human spirit, and it has been embraced by audiences around the world for its uplifting and inspiring qualities.
