Cantate Domino by Giovanni Matteo Asola — Lyrics
Canticum ipsi David, quando domus aedificabatur post captivitatem.
Cantate Domino canticum novum; cantate Domino omnis terra.
Cantate Domino, et benedicite nomini ejus; annuntiate de die in diem salutare ejus.
Annuntiate inter gentes gloriam ejus; in omnibus populis mirabilia ejus.
Quoniam magnus Dominus, et laudabilis nimis: terribilis est super omnes deos.
Quoniam omnes dii gentium daemonia; Dominus autem caelos fecit.
Confessio et pulchritudo in conspectu ejus; sanctimonia et magnificentia in sanctificatione ejus.
Afferte Domino, patriae gentium, afferte Domino gloriam et honorem;

About Cantate Domino
Cantate Domino is a sacred motet by Giovanni Matteo Asola, written for ATB choir. The text, taken from Psalm 96:1-6, calls for a new song of praise to God for his salvation. The music reflects this jubilant message with active vocal lines and a contrapuntal texture. The composer skilfully weaves the parts together, creating a rich sonority that emphasizes the grandeur and majesty of God. This motet is a powerful expression of thanksgiving and a call to proclaim God's glory to all nations. Its engaging vocal writing and clear declamation of the Latin text make it an effective choice for liturgical settings or concert performance.
