Asumente non concisus by Francisco Valls — Lyrics
1. Lauda Sion Salvatorem,
Lauda ducem et pastorem
In hymnis et canticis.
Quantum potes, tantum aude,
Quia maior omni laude,
Nec laudare sufficis.
2. Laudis thema specialis
Panis vivus et vitalis
Hodie proponitur.
Quem in sacrae mensa coenae
Turbae fratrum duodenae
Datum non ambigitur.
3. Sit laus plena, sit sonora;
Sit iucunda, sit decora
Mentis iubilatio,
Dies enim solemnis agitur
In qua mensae prima recolitur
Huius institutio.
4. In hac mensa novi Regis
Novum Pascha novae legis
Phase vetus terminat.

About Asumente non concisus
This setting of the Latin text Lauda Sion Salvatorem unfolds with a rich ST.SATB texture, creating a celebratory and devotional atmosphere. The voices move with a clarity that highlights the theological depth of the eucharistic theme. The composer's treatment of the text, particularly concerning the institution of the Last Supper and the symbolism of the bread and wine, is reflected in the music's evolving dynamics and harmonic language. This motet offers a significant opportunity for a choir to explore a substantial and expressive sacred work, drawing the listener into the solemnity and joy of the occasion it commemorates.
