Composed by Asprilio Pacelli. Arranged by Andrew Schneider. Baroque,Christian,Classical,Renaissance,Sacred. Score and parts. 15 pages. Andrew Schneider #6519911. Published by Andrew Schneider (A0.930765).The court of Sigismund III Vasa of Poland attracted quite a few Italian Renaissance masters interested in writing in an opulent style reminiscent of the polychoral stylings of Gabrieli. This motet is an especially peppy and epic display of rhythmic and timbral virtuosity paying collectively tribute to martyrs who "disdained the rule of earthly princes and so earned a heavenly crown." This is a 6-voice motet arranged for seven instruments so as to allow for invertible counterpoint.
A glossary of the Polish expressive markings is available upon request; note that I have endeavoured to give some of the instruments a bit of a spicy rhythmic profile and render this score a bit more balletic, in the manner Stravinsky arranged Gesualdo madrigals.
