"A substantial setting in three sections of the whole of Psalm 120 (BCP 121) "I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills", without the Gloria Patri. This is the largest work in Gabrieli's 1565 Sacrae Cantiones. The short middle section uses only the lower four parts. Performance time is around seven minutes. As suggested on the 1565 title page, instrumental support or substitution is optional but worth considering."
