Laudate Dominum is a charming motet beginning with a calm ostinato bass line. The other voices enter one by one, until the pretty theme in the altos, central idea of the piece, completed with a counterpoint in the sopranos. After a short series of heavenly variations, the middle sections begins, more rhythmic, vigorous and harmonically various. A triumphant repetition of the main theme in the tenors introduces the last part of the piece, initially based on the same material of the first one, but then continuing with a long and expressive Coda that completes the work with bright solemnity.
