Cantate Domino by Mariano Garau — 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
The Latin text, drawn from Psalm 96, is a jubilant call to praise God, urging all peoples to sing a new song of thanksgiving and to announce His salvation and glory among the nations. The composer Mariano Garau sets this powerful text for SATB choir, creating a vibrant and celebratory anthem. The music likely echoes the scriptural command to proclaim God's magnificence and wonders, offering a rich and devotional experience for both performers and listeners. This sacred work provides an opportunity for choirs to explore expressive vocal writing while conveying a message of universal praise and awe.
