A group of musicians from Mumbai, India, has released a 15-song album titled Jubilate Jesus 2025 to commemorate the 2025th anniversary of Jesus of Nazareth's birth. The project, spearheaded by Tej-Prasarini, the media production house of the Mumbai Salesian province, was coordinated by Salesian Fr Peter Gonsalves.
Fr Gonsalves, the founder of Tej-Prasarini, is a former dean of the Faculty of Social Communications at the Salesian Pontifical University in Rome and a member of the Vatican Department for Communications. A second volume with the same title is scheduled for release on July 3, the feast of St Thomas the Apostle of India. Fr Gonsalves explained the purpose of the Jubilate Jesus project, stating, “This initiative aims to bring people together to rejoice in the birth of Jesus Christ with uplifting melodies and meaningful lyrics. The reason for creating two volumes is to sustain a spirit of reverence, joy, and worship throughout the 12 months of the jubilee year.” The first song, Jesus Christ is Our Only Hope, features a melody composed by Korean Salesian Sr Cecilia and lyrics by Fr Gonsalves, who has written over 100 religious songs. The song is performed and arranged by Neuman Pinto, a professional musician known for producing and recording music for films, advertisements, and songs with social messages.Revealing the genesis and production of the project, Gonsalves elaborated, “I had already produced a collection of my own compositions for the millennium in 2000 titled Jesus is Wonderful. When I realized we were approaching 2025, I began collecting old, melodious, and meaningful hymns as early as 2023. These hymns, mostly in Italian, were translated and adapted for the English-speaking world. I sought and received permission from the individual composers before starting production.” Gonsalves added, “We then invited professional Christian musicians who owned studios to arrange the music and vocals and send us rough cuts. Upon approval, we planned the videos so listeners could learn and sing along. Each song is presented with a picture on the left side of the screen visualizing the lyrics displayed on the right. All images are generated using Artificial Intelligence.” In addition to translations from Italian, the two albums will include songs in Korean and Portuguese. The production is educational and not-for-profit, with all rights to the original compositions and lyrics retained by the respective copyright holders. The Tej-Prasarini media center was established in 1992 at Matunga, Mumbai, under the guidance of Fr Gonsalves, as a production center for audio cassettes with recordings of Christian and theatrical songs for the people of Maharashtra
