Cantate Domino by Johann Baptist Schiedermayr — Lyrics
Psalmus ipsi David. Cantate Domino canticum novum, quia mirabilia fecit. Salvavit sibi dextera ejus, et brachium sanctum ejus.
Notum fecit Dominus salutare suum ; in conspectu gentium revelavit justitiam suam.
Recordatus est misericordiæ suæ, et veritatis suæ domui Israël. Viderunt omnes termini terræ salutare Dei nostri.
Jubilate Deo, omnis terra ; cantate, et exsultate, et psallite.
Psallite Domino in cithara ; in cithara et voce psalmi ;

About Cantate Domino
This setting of Psalm 98 opens with an exuberant jubilant cry, the choir proclaiming the new song for God's marvellous deeds. The music reflects the text's call for universal praise, with voices combining in joyful harmony. The rich SATB texture allows for dynamic contrasts, from powerful pronouncements to more delicate passages. Schiedermayr's setting is a stirring piece, conveying the exultation and thanksgiving inherent in the psalm, making it a vibrant addition to sacred repertoire. Its Latin text is a direct setting of the psalm, celebrating God's salvation and justice, calling all the earth to rejoice and sing.
