Handl, Jakob (Gallus)

2 motets for 5 voices: O bone Jesu -and- In nomine Jesu EMP0469 €2.50
SAATB Scoring legend General Use (Manuscript edition) ISMN M-2056-0469-1 
Ascendens Christus EMP0096 €2.00
SATB Scoring legend Ascension - Motet general ISMN M-2056-0096-9 
A splendid piece with tricky rhythms, rather typical of Handl. The opening phrase 'Christ rising into heaven' covers a ninth in steps of a third, in each voice. A high-clef piece, usually offered down a minor third but of course available as required. Now available in Sibelius format.
Ascendo ad Patrem EMP0097 €1.00
SSATBB Scoring legend Ascension - Motet general (Manuscript edition) ISMN M-2056-0097-6 
Beatus Laurentius orabat EMP0613 €2.00
SATTB Scoring legend St Lawrence (August 10) - Motet general ISMN M-2056-0613-8 
An unusual text deriving from a pre-Tridentine Rite and found as far as we can establish only in this setting from Handl's Opus Musicum.
Gaudeamus omnes fideles EMP0468 €1.50
SSAATTB Scoring legend All Saints (November 1) (Manuscript edition) ISMN M-2056-0468-4

Quasi cedrus EMP0419 €2.00
SSATBB Scoring legend Marian Feasts - Lesson (Lesung) incl. Lamentations ISMN M-2056-0419-6 
Unusual setting of a text from the book Ecclesiasticus (Jesus Sirach), which forms the whole of the third reading at the Little Office of the BVM.
Regnum mundi EMP0420 €2.00
SSMA Scoring legend Non-liturgical - Motet general ISMN M-2056-0420-2 
A strange and as yet unidentified text similar in mood to the Melanchola of Lassus. The 'Ad aequales' scoring can be tranposed to suit different groups of voices. Our example is SSMA but TTBaB is equally valid.
Regnum mundi EMP0775 €2.00
SSTB Scoring legend Non-liturgical - Motet general ISMN M-2056-0775-3 
A strange and as yet unidentified text similar in mood to the Melanchola of Lassus. The 'Ad aequales' scoring can be tranposed to suit different groups of voices. This version is SSTB.
newRegnum mundi EMP1106 €2.00
SATB Scoring legend Non-liturgical - Motet general ISMN M-2056-1106-4 
A strange and as yet unidentified text similar in mood to the Melanchola of Lassus. The piece is in an 'Ad aequales' scoring, i.e. it can be transposed to suit different groups of voices. This version is a fifth lower than the original and works well for SATB.
Rorate coeli EMP0421 €3.50
SSATBB Scoring legend Marian Feasts - Introitus ISMN M-2056-0421-9 
Two motets for Advent EMP0574 €3.50

The piece is given in Handl's Opus Musicum as a Responsory for Epiphany. In certain rites, however, including that of St Mark's in Venice, the same text is set as the 8th Antiphon at Matins on the Feast of the Transfiguration of Our Lord (August 6).
