Beatus homo by Tanmoy Laskar — Lyrics
About Beatus homo
This sacred motet for four-part men's voices (ATTB) sets a Latin text drawn from Proverbs 3, beginning with 'Beatus homo qui invenit sapientiam' (Happy is the man who finds wisdom). The words extol the incomparable value of wisdom over earthly riches, stating that acquiring it is better than the trade of silver, and more precious than the finest gold. Tanmoy Laskar’s setting offers a reflective exploration of these themes, suitable for liturgical occasions or concerts focusing on devotional repertoire. The rich texture of the men’s voices can provide a sonorous and profound interpretation of the scriptural message.
