About Caeli Deus omnipotens

Maistre Jhan's motet Caeli Deus omnipotens sets a Latin text that forms a powerful blessing. The words invoke God's omnipotence to grant abundant growth and favour upon those who are blessed, while condemning those who curse them. The text continues with a prayer for divine assistance, seeking blessings from both heaven and earth, and ensuring that no good thing will be lacking until eternal joy arrives. This sacred work is written for a substantial SATTBB choir, offering a rich and resonant sound world suited to the grandeur of the text. It is a motet of significant scope, ideal for a choir seeking a challenging and spiritually uplifting piece.
