Dixit Dominus by Horatio Colombano — Lyrics
Psalmus David. Dixit Dominus Domino meo: sede a dextris meis, donec ponam inimicos tuos
scabellum pedum tuorum.
Virgam virtutis tuae emittet Dominus ex Sion: dominare in medio
inimicorum tuorum.
Tecum principium in die virtutis tuae in splendoribus sanctorum:
ex utero, ante luciferum, genui te.

About Dixit Dominus
Horatio Colombano's Dixit Dominus sets the first of the Vesper Psalms in the traditional Latin text. This sacred work for SATTB choir explores the power and majesty of God, as described in the Psalm. The music unfolds the text's powerful message of divine dominion, with verses proclaiming God's might and eternal priesthood. The setting is sure to resonate with choirs looking for a substantial Renaissance work to add to their sacred repertoire. Its grand scope and rich harmonic language offer a rewarding challenge for singers and a compelling experience for listeners, embodying the gravitas of its liturgical origin.
