In splendoribus by Franz Sales — Lyrics
In splendoribus sanctorum ex utero ante luciferum genui te.
(Ps. 109:3b)
About In splendoribus
Sung at Mass on the Feast of the Annunciation, or on any Sunday within the Octave of the Annunciation, In splendoribus is a setting of the Gradual for these occasions. The text, drawn from Psalm 109, speaks of Christ's eternal generation. The SATTB voicing allows for rich, full harmonies appropriate to the solemnity of the texts, while the Latin liturgical language adds to the gravitas of the work. Franz Sales crafts a moving and devotional piece, perfectly suited for a choir seeking to elevate the liturgy with meaningful musical expression.
