Angelus Domini by Joseph Furmanik — Lyrics
Angelus enim[autem] Domini descendit de coelo, et accedens revolvit lapidem,
et super eum sedit.
Et dixit mulieribus: Nolite timere: scio enim quia crucifixum quaeritis:
Iam surrexit: venite, et videte locum, ubi positus erat Dominus.
Alleluja.
Et introeuntes in monumentum, viderunt juvenem sedentem in dextris

About Angelus Domini
This SATB setting of the Latin text Angelus Domini opens with the music itself, its character and texture immediately establishing a sense of awe. The interplay of voices builds to a powerful proclamation of the Angel's message of the Resurrection, "Iam surrexit: venite, et videte locum, ubi positus erat Dominus." The composer skillfully crafts moments of both dramatic intensity and serene reflection, mirroring the profound spiritual significance of the Easter story. The responsorial nature of the text is embraced, creating a rich and engaging experience for both choir and listeners, culminating in a triumphant "Alleluia" and "Gloria Patri."
