About Exultet coelum
This jubilant Latin motet for SATTBB voices is designed for occasions celebrating apostles and saints. The text calls for the heavens and earth to rejoice in the glory of the apostles, described as the righteous judges and true lights of the world. The choir is asked to pray for their intercession, seeking absolution from sins and healing for the sick. The final verses implore Christ, the judge of all, to grant eternal joy and to instruct believers through the teachings of the apostles, with glory rendered to the Trinity. Its grand, celebratory nature makes it suitable for feasts of apostles or saints, or indeed any solemn occasion where a powerful expression of praise is desired.
