Ad Dominum cum tribularer clamavi, et exaudivit me.
Domine, libera animam meam a labiis iniquis et a lingua dolosa.
About Ad Dominum cum tribularer, SWV 71
Heinrich Schütz's motet Ad Dominum cum tribularer, SWV 71, is a powerful setting of a Latin text drawn from the Psalms. Written for SATB choir, it is ideal for occasions of deep reflection or supplication. The composer's masterful handling of the text is evident as the music responds to the plea for divine aid in times of trouble and deliverance from deceitful tongues. This responsorial psalm is a profound example of Baroque sacred music, perfect for a choir seeking challenging yet rewarding repertoire. Its dramatic contrasts and expressive vocal writing make it a compelling choice for concert or liturgical settings.
