6 lateinische Hymnen, Op. 58 by Josef Rheinberger — Lyrics
Omnes de Saba venient
aurum et thus deferentes
et laudem annuntiantes Domini.
Surge et illuminare Jerusalem
Quia Gloria Domini super te orta est, gloria Domini

About 6 lateinische Hymnen, Op. 58
Josef Rheinberger's Six Latin Hymns, Op. 58, offer a rich exploration of sacred choral music for SATB voices. This collection draws upon the profound traditions of Catholic liturgical text, setting devotional Latin hymns. The composer's skillful handling of vocal textures is evident throughout the set, as is his clear understanding of how to shape music to the meaning of the words. The texts here speak of the coming of the Magi, bearing gifts and announcing the Lord's praise, and of Jerusalem being illuminated by the Lord's glory, a powerful image of spiritual awakening and divine presence. This is music of devotion and resplendent beauty.
