About Benedicamus Domino
This SATB setting of Benedicamus Domino by Peter Warlock is a vibrant motet suitable for a celebratory occasion. The Latin text, which speaks of the Lord's birth and praises the incarnate God, is delivered with joyful exclamations. The composer's skill is evident in the text painting, particularly in the jubilant "Gloria!" sections, which will offer a thrilling challenge to a choir. This is a fine example of sacred music, ideal for adding a bright and uplifting moment to a service or concert programme.
