Sustinuimus pacem - de Manchicourt, Pierre

📄

Vorschau noch nicht erstellt

"Among Manchicourt's more than seventy motets, this is one of only three with a partial signature (an additional flat in the ''Bassus'' part only), a technique from the earlier generation of Renaissance composers. This motet exemplifies Manchicourt's word-painting skills at their best: he has set the ''Quinta Pars'' to a slow-moving, ostinato-like ''cantus firmus'' — using the opening line of the chant setting of the Da pacem, Domine — that stands in stark (and peaceful) contrast to the frenetic movement of the freely composed counterpoint in the other five voices, depicting their relentless and fruitless search for peace."

Sustinúimus pacem, et non venit; :quaesívimus bona, et ecce turbátio. Cognóscimus, Dómine, peccáta nostra: :non in perpétuum obliviscáris nos. Nos álium deum nescímus praeter Dóminum, :in quo sperámus, qui non despíciet nos, :nec amovébit salútem a génere nostro. Fiat pax in virtúte tua. '''''Cantus firmus''''': Da pacem, Dómine, in diébus nostris.
