Kommet lasst uns by Samuel Friedrich Capricornus — Lyrics
About Kommet lasst uns
Samuel Friedrich Capricornus invites singers to the house of God in this sacred motet. The text, from Isaiah 2:3, expresses a desire to learn God's ways and walk in His paths, urging a communal journey towards spiritual enlightenment. Set for two sopranos and a bass (SST), the intimate voicing allows for a clear and direct delivery of the devotional message. Capricornus, a composer of the Baroque era, crafts a setting that emphasizes the earnest plea and hopeful anticipation found in the German lyrics. This motet is a powerful call to collective spiritual growth, rendered with clarity and devotion by the composer's skillful hand.
