Wacaw z Szamotu: In te Domine speravi

Wacław z Szamotuł. In te Domine speravi. The Wrocław Radio Choir, conductor Stanisław Krukowski. Muza - Polskie Nagrania. Wacław z Szamotuł (c. 1526 - c. 1560) studied in Poznan and Cracow. He is the most outstanding Polish composer in this period. Three Latin motets and a bunch of vernacular songs -for Protestant services- remain from his work. This four-part motet was published in Nuremberg (1554) in the collection “Psalmorum selectorum... Tomus quartus“. Lyrics: Psalmus 30 2-6 In te Domine speravi non confundar in aeternum, in iustitia tua libera me. Inclina ad me aurem tuam, accelera ut eruas me, esto mihi in Deum protectorem et in domum refugii ut salvum me facias. Quoniam fortitudo mea et refugium meum es tu et propter nomen tuum deduces me et enutries me. Educes me de laqueo hoc quem absconderunt mihi quoniam tu es protector meus. In manus tuas commendabo spiritum meum, redemisti me Domine Deus veritatis.
