Cantate domino canticum novum by Iacopo Corfini — Lyrics
Canticum ipsi David, quando domus aedificabatur post captivitatem.
Cantate Domino canticum novum; cantate Domino omnis terra.
Cantate Domino, et benedicite nomini ejus; annuntiate de die in diem salutare ejus.
Annuntiate inter gentes gloriam ejus; in omnibus populis mirabilia ejus.
Quoniam magnus Dominus, et laudabilis nimis: terribilis est super omnes deos.
Quoniam omnes dii gentium daemonia; Dominus autem caelos fecit.
Confessio et pulchritudo in conspectu ejus; sanctimonia et magnificentia in sanctificatione ejus.
Afferte Domino, patriae gentium, afferte Domino gloriam et honorem;

About Cantate domino canticum novum
Iacopo Corfini's Cantate domino canticum novum is a potent motet for SSATTB voices. The text, drawn from Psalm 96, calls for a new song of praise to God, urging all the earth to sing and bless His name. It proclaims God's glory and wondrous works among the nations, emphasizing His greatness and power above all other deities. The composer sets this exultant text with rich harmonies suitable for double choir, conjuring a sense of awe and magnificence as the music unfurls.
