About Alleluia, Haec dies quam fecit Dominus
Tiburtio Massaino's Alleluia, Haec dies quam fecit Dominus is a sacred motet for SSATB choir, sung in Latin. The text is a celebration of Easter, exclaiming that this is the day the Lord has made, calling for rejoicing. It also incorporates the Easter sequence, "The question is posed to Mary: 'What did you see on the way?' She replies: 'I saw the tomb of the living Christ and the glory of the Risen One.'" The music is likely to reflect the joyous and triumphant nature of the Easter message, making it a powerful choice for liturgical settings.
