Gloria Patri qui creavit nos by Gregor Aichinger — Lyrics
Prima pars
Gloria Patri
qui creavit nos
Gloria Filio
qui redemit nos
Gloria Spiritui Sancto
qui sanctificavit nos
Gloria summæ
et individuæ Trinitati
cuius opera inseparabilia sunt
sine fine manet
cuius imperium sine fine manet.

About Gloria Patri qui creavit nos
Gregor Aichinger’s Gloria Patri is a substantial motet for SSATB voices, set in Latin. The music opens with a rich, contrapuntal texture exploring the text of the first section, a jubilant praise to the Trinity. The composer moves from the creation of humanity through redemption and sanctification, culminating in a doxology to the inseparable Three-in-One. The second section, Te decet laus, shifts to a more homophonic and declamatory style, emphasizing the praise, hymns, and honor due to God. The motet concludes with a powerful affirmation of God’s glory and might for ever and ever, Amen.
