11. Yitkenayu Lite

A piece for the morning service for the 10th of the month and occasionally for Tāzkar. God is thanked for feeding the needy, for giving water to the thirsty and for covering the naked. God is then praised as the First one and the Last one, for being eternal.

In this piece, the distribution of the melodic material follows a common hemiola pattern: A-A-B/A-A-B. The soloist parts A and B sometimes overlap with the choir’s part, creating plurivocal moments.
