Da Pater alme by Daniel Friderici — Lyrics
Da Pater alme Deus laudem tua numina semper:
Nunc et in æternum te sine fine canam.
About Da Pater alme
This sacred motet for SATTB voices sets a Latin text of praise. The words express a plea to the 'soul-sustaining God' to always grant praise to His divine powers, and to sing His praises eternally without end. Daniel Friderici composed this piece, which is a fine example of the motet genre. The expressive Latin text, combined with the rich SATTB voicing, offers a powerful musical setting for liturgical or concert use, highlighting the composer's skill in devotional music.
