Domine dominus noster

Philippe Duc's motet Domine dominus noster sets a powerful Latin text which exalts God's name and his creation. The words describe how God has crowned a holy pontiff with glory and honour, placing a precious crown upon his head. The text expresses profound awe at the divine power evident in the universe and in the appointed leaders who govern it. Scored for SSATTB voices, this motet offers rich harmonic possibilities. Its sacred nature and impressive vocal forces make it a significant addition to any liturgical or concert setting.
