Composed by Giovanni Priuli. Early Music Library. Choral or Vocal Music. Score. Published by London Pro Musica (MM.EML0286-00).

This wonderful but regrettably short motet comes from Giovanni Priuli's Sacrorum concentuum of 1618, the first of two collection of motets and instrumental works demonstrating a consistently high level of brilliance and originality (all of the 8- and 12-part instrumental pieces have been or will be published in our A Due Cori series - ADC)). Giovanni Priuli was born in Venice around 1575, and studied there with Giovanni Gabrieli: by the early 1600s he was deputising for his teacher at the organ in St. Marco. He also worked at another important church in Venice, San Rocco. But by 1614 he had moved to Austria, where he was Kappellmeister to Archduke Ferdinand, intially at Graz, and then (from 1619) in Vienna, where he died in 1629.
