Ecce vidimus by Pomponio Nenna — Lyrics
Ecce vidimus eum non habentem speciem, neque decorem:
aspectus ejus in eo non est:
hic peccata nostra portavit, et pro nobis dolet:
ipse autem vulneratus est propter iniquitates nostras:
Cujus livore sanati sumus.

About Ecce vidimus
Pomponio Nenna's Ecce vidimus belongs to the tradition of Tenebrae responsories, sacred settings of texts used in the Holy Week liturgy. The Latin words here speak of Christ's suffering, describing his lack of beauty and bearing our sins and sorrows. The setting is for double choir (SATB, ATTB), creating rich contrapuntal textures and opportunities for antiphonal effects. The text vividly portrays Christ's wounds as the source of our healing, a powerful and poignant message for Holy Week.
