Cantate Domino canticum novum by Ivo de Vento — Lyrics
Alleluja. Cantate Domino canticum novum;
laus ejus in ecclesia sanctorum.
Laetetur Israël in eo qui fecit eum,
et filii Sion exsultent in rege suo.
Laudent nomen ejus in choro;
in tympano et psalterio psallant ei.
Quia beneplacitum est Domino in populo suo,
et exaltabit mansuetos in salutem.
Exsultabunt sancti in gloria;

About Cantate Domino canticum novum
This motet is ideal for a celebratory occasion in the church's calendar. The text, drawn from the Psalms, overflows with praise and rejoicing. It calls for singing a new song to the Lord, extolling his glory within the assembly of saints and urging the faithful to exult in their King. The composer, Ivo de Vento, sets this vibrant Latin text for a rich SAATB choir. The SAATB voicing allows for a broad range of expression, from moments of solemn devotion to passages of powerful exultation, making it a fitting choice for services that call for profound spiritual expression and communal joy.
