William Boyce ’s Te Deum And Jubilate In C was written for four Voices (SATB) with Bass continuo (Piano) accompaniment and first published in 1790. The lyrics of the two sacred pieces are both in English translation – an early Christian hymn of praise ( Te Deum ) and Psalm 100 ( Jubilate ). As morning canticles they are usually sung at Morning Prayer in the Anglican tradition. Duration, if performed together, is approximately 6:15 minutes. William Boyce is widely regarded as one of the most important English-born composers of the 18th century, however he remains little-performed today. The beauty of his sacred compositions is proof of his lifelong involvement with various aspects of Church music (as a choirboy, organist and composer) since the age of 9.
