About I KWERELA NA CHINEKE?

Setting the words of the Creed to music gives a choir the chance to lead the congregation in a powerful, unified declaration of faith. "I Kwerela Na Chineke?" (Do You Believe in God?) is a vibrant Igbo setting of the Nicene Creed, arranged in a call-and-response style that mirrors the traditional renewal of baptismal promises.

The piece begins with a direct question to the faithful—"I kwerela na Chineke?"—to which the choir responds with a resounding "E, kwerem" (Yes, I believe). From there, it flows through the core tenets of the Catholic faith, from the creation of heaven and earth to the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ, and the anticipation of the life to come. The rhythmic, conversational flow of the solfa notation keeps the long text engaging, making it a fitting and uplifting choice for the Profession of Faith during Sunday Mass or special solemnities.
