Cantate Domino by Daniel Friderici — Lyrics
Psalmus ipsi David. Cantate Domino canticum novum, quia mirabilia fecit. Salvavit sibi dextera ejus, et brachium sanctum ejus.
Notum fecit Dominus salutare suum ; in conspectu gentium revelavit justitiam suam.
Recordatus est misericordiæ suæ, et veritatis suæ domui Israël. Viderunt omnes termini terræ salutare Dei nostri.
Jubilate Deo, omnis terra ; cantate, et exsultate, et psallite.
Psallite Domino in cithara ; in cithara et voce psalmi ;

About Cantate Domino
This jubilant motet by Daniel Friderici sets a well-known passage from Psalm 98. The text calls for a new song to God, celebrating his wondrous deeds, his saving right hand, and his justice revealed to all nations. It urges all the earth to sing, rejoice, and make music with various instruments, to praise the Lord. The composer's setting for three-part women's voices (SSA) reflects the text's exuberant mood, with soaring melodies and joyful harmonies appropriate for sacred occasions. The music captures the grandeur of God's coming to judge the earth and the enthusiastic response of creation, from the seas to the rivers and mountains.
