Byrd - Laudibus in sanctis | The Choir of Trinity College Cambridge

The Choir of Trinity College Cambridge and Director of Music Steven Grahl perform 'Laudibus in sanctis' by William Byrd (1540-1623) at Evensong in Trinity College Chapel on Sunday 16 February 2025. Laudibus in sanctis ======= Laudibus in sanctis Dominum celebrate supremum: Firmamenta sonent inclita facta Dei. Inclita facta Dei cantate, sacraque potentis Voce potestatem saepe sonate manus. Magnificum Domini cantet tuba martia nomen: Pieria Domino concelebrate lira. Laude Dei resonent resonantia tympana summi, Alta sacri resonent organa laude Dei. Hunc arguta canant tenui psalteria corda, Hunc agili laudet laeta chorea pede. Concava divinas effundant cymbala laudes, Cymbala dulcisona laude repleta Dei. Omne quod aethereis in mundo vescitur auris Halleluia canat, tempus in omne Deo. Anon.: - Paraphrase of Psalm 150 --- Celebrate the Lord most high in holy praises: Let the firmament echo the glorious deeds of God. Sing ye the glorious deeds of God, and with holy voice Sound forth oft the power of his mighty hand. Let the warlike trumpet sing the great name of the Lord: Celebrate the Lord with Pierian lyre. Let resounding timbrels ring to the praise of the most-high God, Lofty organs peal to the praise of the holy God. Him let melodious psalteries sing with fine string, Him let joyful dance praise with nimble foot. Let hollow cymbals pour forth divine praises, Sweet-sounding cymbals filled with the praise of God. Let everything in the world that feeds upon the air of heaven Sing Alleluia to God for evermore. === For more information about The Choir, including joining as a Choral Scholar or Organ Scholar, and forthcoming livestream services and concerts, visit: https://www.trinitycollegechoir.com On Facebook:   / trincollchoir   On Twitter:   / trincollchoir   On Instagram:   / trincollchoir
