About Ecce enim evangelizo
Sing this motet during the Christmas season to proclaim the joyous news of the Nativity. Marco Antonio Ingegneri's setting of the traditional Latin text captures the exultation of the evangelist's announcement. The music is for TTBB male voices, and Ingegneri's composition emphasizes the grandeur and solemnity of the event. It speaks of the great joy to all people, for today in the city of David a Savior is born, Christ the Lord. The text offers the sign of finding the infant wrapped in swaddling clothes and laid in a manger, a profound moment of divine revelation.
