About Alleluia surrexit Dominus vere
This joyful Latin motet celebrates the Resurrection of Christ with a resounding Alleluia. The text, likely drawing from Easter liturgy, speaks of the Lord truly risen from the tomb and appearing to Simon, bringing great rejoicing to the disciples and the Virgin Mary. Jacquet de Mantua, whose work is sometimes confused with that of Jacquet de Berchem, has crafted a piece that moves from exuberant praise to heartfelt gladness. Scored for two SATB choirs or SATB and ATTB, this motet offers rich harmonic possibilities and a powerful expression of Easter faith.
