This setting of ‘Locus iste’ was written earlier this year for the Nidarosdomens Guttekor, a choir of boys and men, based at the Cathedral in Trondheim, Norway. It is set for SATB, with some divisi, and has organ accompaniment, but it may also be performed a cappella.
The piece has just been self published, and is available from Sheet Music Plus or J W Pepper.
Here are the Latin words, followed by an English translation.
Locus iste a Deo factus est,
inaestimabile sacramentum,
irreprehensibilis est.
This place was made by God,
a priceless sacrament;
it is without reproach.
