Jauchzet dem Herren, alle Welt (Concert), SWV 47 by Heinrich Schütz — Lyrics
Jauchzet dem Herren, alle Welt; singet, rühmet und
lobet!
Lobet den Herrn mit Harfen, mit Harfen und Psalmen!
Lobet ihn mit Pauken und Reigen; lobet ihn mit Saifen un Pfeifen
Mit Drommeten, mit Posaunen jauchzet für dem Herrn, dem Könige!

About Jauchzet dem Herren, alle Welt (Concert), SWV 47
Heinrich Schütz's Jauchzet dem Herren, alle Welt is a grand and celebratory motet for a large choir. The work unfolds with a remarkable sense of scale, its numerous voice parts creating a rich and complex contrapuntal texture. The German text, drawn from the Psalms, calls for joyous praise to God, urging all creation, from the heavens to the earth and the sea, to sing, make music, and laud the Almighty. The music mirrors this exuberance with its powerful harmonic language and dynamic contrasts, building to an ecstatic Alleluja. The generous voicing, divided into multiple SATB choirs, allows for antiphonal effects and a magnificent sonic breadth, making this a truly resplendent statement of faith.
