EKWE M N'OTU CHINEKE (CREDO)

This is a majestic Igbo setting of the Nicene Creed, the great profession of faith sung by the congregation after the homily. The title "Ekwe M N'otu Chineke" translates to "I believe in one God," and the piece carries the solemn, affirming weight of generations of believers declaring the core truths of the Catholic faith.

Ezeakacha Chukwuebuka's arrangement moves through the articles of faith with a steady, rhythmic dignity. The choir leads the assembly through the mysteries of the Incarnation, the Passion under Pontius Pilate, the Resurrection, and the final hope of the world to come. It is a piece that grounds the Mass, uniting the voices in the loft and the pews in a shared, unwavering conviction.
