1finch2finch's video: In Dulci Jubilo Praetorius Exeter Cathedral Choir

The Choir of Exeter Cathedral, under the direction of Stephen Tanner, perform German composer Michael Praetorius' arrangement of the traditional Christmas carol 'In Dulci Jubilo.' The carol, which is frequently translated and performed as 'Good Christian Men, Rejoice' and presented in a mix of English and Latin, is here given in the original German and Latin. [ German & Latin Text ] In dulci jubilo,
 Nun singet und seid froh!
 Unsers Herzens Wonne 
Leit in praesepio;
 Und leuchtet wie die Sonne
 Matris in gremio. Alpha es et O! [ English Translation ] In sweet rejoicing, now sing and be glad! Our hearts' joy lies in the manger; And it shines like the sun in the mother's lap. You are the alpha and omega! [ Recording available on the disk 'A Year in Exeter Cathedral,' (Priory, 2012). ]
