En Kör: Magnificat à 12 (Andrea Gabrieli)

En Kör performs Magnificat à 12 by Andrea Gabrieli. Recorded in Storkyrkan in Stockholm on March 2, 2025.

Magnificat à 12 was written in the late 16th century by Andrea Gabrieli in the Venetian polychoral tradition. It features rich harmonies and echoing voices that fill the space with radiant sound.

The lyrics of Andrea Gabrieli’s Magnificat à 12 are based on the Latin text of the Magnificat, also known as the Canticle of Mary. This text comes from the Gospel of Luke (1:46-55) and is traditionally sung as part of the Vespers service.

Lyrics:

Magnificat anima mea Dominum,
et exsultavit spiritus meus in Deo salutari meo,
quia respexit humilitatem ancillae suae.

Ecce enim ex hoc beatam me dicent omnes generationes,
quia fecit mihi magna, qui potens est,
et sanctum nomen eius,
et misericordia eius a progenie in progenies timentibus eum.

Fecit potentiam in brachio suo,
dispersit superbos mente cordis sui;
deposuit potentes de sede
et exaltavit humiles.

Esurientes implevit bonis,
et divites dimisit inanes.

Suscepit Israel puerum suum,
recordatus misericordiae suae,
sicut locutus est ad patres nostros,
Abraham et semini eius in saecula.

Gloria Patri, et Filio, et Spiritui Sancto,
sicut erat in principio, et nunc, et semper,
et in saecula saeculorum. Amen.

English translation:

My soul magnifies the Lord,
and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior,
for He has looked with favor on the lowliness of His servant.

Behold, from now on all generations will call me blessed,
for the Mighty One has done great things for me,
and holy is His name.
His mercy is on those who fear Him,
from generation to generation.

He has shown strength with His arm,
He has scattered the proud in the thoughts of their hearts.
He has brought down the mighty from their thrones,
and has lifted up the humble.

He has filled the hungry with good things,
and the rich He has sent away empty.

He has helped His servant Israel,
in remembrance of His mercy,
as He spoke to our fathers,
to Abraham and his descendants forever.

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit,
as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be,
world without end. Amen.
