In Mariam vite viam by Hermanus de Atrio — Lyrics
Im Mariam vite viam matrem veram viventium
Pie venit qui redemit peccata delinquentium
Gressum cepit cum concepit Maria multum properans
visitavit comfortavit Elisabeth compatiens
Salutatur inflammatur Elisabeth et filius
inaudita fiunt ita de dono Sancti Spiritus

About In Mariam vite viam
This devotional Latin hymn setting, In Mariam vite viam, is ideal for a choir seeking to enrich services during Marian feast days or periods dedicated to the Virgin Mary. The composer Hermanus de Atrio has crafted a piece for STTB voices that contemplates Mary's role as the mother of Christ and her journey to visit her cousin Elizabeth. The text poetically describes the Annunciation, the Magnificat, and John the Baptist's recognition of Christ in the womb. The music reflects the sacred nature of these events, offering a reflective and spiritual experience for both singers and listeners. Its clear melodic lines and harmonic language make it accessible for choirs looking to expand their repertoire of Marian music.
