In piaga di dolore by Marcantonio Tornioli — Lyrics
In piaga di dolore, tenero pargoletto
mostri la piaga dell' interno affetto.
Son quelle doglie rie
e quelle offese tue difese mie,
tua piaga mia vittoria,
tuo sangue mio triomfo e tu mia gloria.

About In piaga di dolore
Marcantonio Tornioli's In piaga di dolore for SSB voices draws from the Italian madrigal tradition, though its sacred text places it firmly in a devotional context. The music is likely to be rich with the interplay of the three voices, imitative or homophonic, as Tornioli explores the expressive possibilities of word-painting. The devotional text is a meditation on Christ's wounds, seen not as a source of pain but as a sign of divine love and a promise of salvation. The 'infant God' offers his blood to mankind, transforming suffering into victory and glory. This is moving sacred part-music for a choir seeking profound devotional expression.
