Tragico tecti syrmate (Clothed with tragic robes) for SSSAAA, a cappella by Orlande De Lassus A Cappella - Sheet Music

By Orlande De Lassus

This angels' lament for the destruction of a city is the crown of Renaissance music for upper voices. While each of the largely syllabic parts is independent, together they interweave in a stately harmonic rhythm, conveying both the dignity of formal mourning, and the richness of the city and its people that are no more. The text, with its images of ice, fire, smoke, and wind-borne ash, is chilling in its prescience of nuclear winter, and in its evocation of past and present wars.SSSAAA, a cappella Published by: Treble Clef Music Minimum order quantity: 8 copies.
