"Gabrieli has produced quite a modern setting for 1565, with a great deal of monophonic declamation and pictorial madrigalian touches, of this vesper psalm. The motet is substantial (it is in two parts and is 120 breves long) and is one of the few in the collection not to begin with an extended point of imitation. A sense of structure comes from the harmonically-coloured repeated refrain (spot the false relation) at the beginning and end - a device inherited from the psalm text of course. In common with other vesper psalms from this collection, Gabrieli does not provide a polyphonic Gloria Patri. Source: Andreae Gabrielis Sacrae Cantiones […], Liber Primus, published Antonio Gardano, Venice 1565. See the main Sacrae Cantiones (Vulgo Motecta Appellatae), Quinque Vocum, Liber Primus. (Andrea Gabrieli) for more commentary and links to the other motets in the volume. This is Gabrieli's first published collection of his compositions and shows his early style. 1565 is an interesting date as Gabrieli's star was just rising in Venice - he had travelled to Munich in 1562, befriending Orlandus Lassus, and then he became organist at San Marco in 1566. Quite possibly this collection, dedicated to Prince Albert, Duke of Bavaria and probably at least partially composed while in Munich, helped Gabrieli to gain the post. As suggested on the 1565 title page, instrumental support or substitution is optional but worth considering. The source is in high clefs, so downward transposition for performance was likely."
