Cor Jesu (quattro mottetti)

Antonio Grimaldi's motet Cor Jesu is written for two-part choir (SA) in Latin. It is a sacred piece belonging to the motet tradition. The text is a fervent prayer to the heart of Jesus, asking that the singers' hearts be inflamed with love for Him, mirroring His own burning love for humanity. This short setting offers a direct and heartfelt musical expression of devotional longing, suitable for services or concerts. The composer's focus on the central imagery of the Sacred Heart makes this a poignant devotional reflection.
