Psalm 100 - Jauchzet dem Herren, SWV 36 by Heinrich Schütz — Lyrics
Psalmus in confessione.
Jubilate Deo, omnis terra;
servite Domino in laetitia. Introite in conspectu ejus in exsultatione.
Scitote quoniam Dominus ipse est Deus; ipse fecit nos, et non ipsi nos:
populus ejus, et oves pascuae ejus.

About Psalm 100 - Jauchzet dem Herren, SWV 36
Heinrich Schütz’s setting of Psalm 100, Jauchzet dem Herren, is a powerful motet for double choir, SATB and SATB. The text, presented in both Latin and German, draws from Psalm 100, a jubilant call to praise and serve God. It speaks of entering His gates with thanksgiving and His courts with praise, confessing His name for He is good and His mercy is everlasting. Schütz, a master of Baroque sacred music, crafts a sonorous and dynamic musical setting that reflects the exultant nature of the text. The use of two choirs allows for antiphonal effects, creating a rich and immersive sonic experience suitable for festive occasions.
