Confitemini Domino by Alessandro Costantini — Lyrics
Confitemini Domino, quoniam bonus, quoniam in sæculum misericordia ejus.
About Confitemini Domino
Alessandro Costantini's Confitemini Domino is a sacred motet for double choir, SSA and TTT. The Latin text, which opens with "Confitemini Domino, quoniam bonus, quoniam in sæculum misericordia ejus," is a psalm verse expressing praise and gratitude for God's unending mercy. This work is well-suited for services of thanksgiving or general congregational worship. The distinct vocal ranges of the two choirs offer opportunities for varied textural effects and contrasts, allowing the composer to build moments of great power and intimacy within the liturgical setting. Its style is typical of the high Renaissance, with clear textual declamation and contrapuntal writing.
