Confitebor à 5 by Pietro Lappi — Lyrics
Alleluja. Confitebor tibi, Domine, in toto corde meo, in consilio justorum,
et congregatione.
Magna opera Domini: exquisita in omnes voluntates ejus.
Confessio et magnificentia opus ejus, et justitia ejus manet in saeculum saeculi.
Memoriam fecit mirabilium suorum, misericors et miserator
Dominus.
Escam dedit timentibus se; memor erit in saeculum testamenti sui.
Virtutem operum suorum annuntiabit populo suo,

About Confitebor à 5
This setting of Psalm 111 (Vulgate 110) comes from Pietro Lappi's collection of Vespers Psalms. Sung in Latin, Confitebor tibi Domine is a joyful psalm of thanksgiving, praising God for his mighty works and eternal covenant. The text speaks of righteousness, remembrance, and the wisdom that comes from fearing the Lord. Lappi composed this motet for a five-part choir, using the SSATB voicing. It is well-suited for liturgical occasions, particularly within the context of Vespers services, offering a rich and devotional musical experience for a mixed-voice ensemble.
