Beati omnes by Giuseppe Belloni — Lyrics
Canticum graduum. Beati omnes qui timent Dominum, qui ambulant in viis ejus.
Labores manuum tuarum quia manducabis: beatus es, et bene tibi erit.
Uxor tua sicut vitis abundans in lateribus domus tuae;
filii tui sicut novellae olivarum in circuitu mensae tuae.

About Beati omnes
Giuseppe Belloni’s Beati omnes offers a rich SATTB setting of a psalm text that draws on the imagery of family prosperity and divine blessing. The music opens with a sense of gentle assurance, gradually building in textural complexity as the voices entwine to express the psalm’s message of reward for those who fear the Lord. Belloni’s SATTB writing allows for a full, resonant sound, with opportunities for expressive counterpoint and warm harmonic colour. This sacred Latin work, suitable for Vespers, explores themes of enduring peace and the fulfillment of family life, culminating in a serene and uplifting conclusion. The composer’s approach to this scriptural text is both devout and musically engaging.
