Filius qui nascetur tibi

The words of this motet express a prophecy of peace and divine promise, taken from the Old Testament. The text speaks of a son who will be called the Peacemaker, who will build a house for God and be received as a son, with God promising to be his father. Tiburtio Massaino sets this comforting message for a rich SATTB choir. The composer's setting is likely to reflect the devotional character of the Latin text, offering a profound musical meditation on faith and fatherly love. This sacred motet would serve as a powerful and reflective addition to any choral programme, drawing on the rich tradition of Renaissance sacred music.
