He knew so much about counterpoint that he wrote whatever he wanted with great mastery...he was born a few km. From my home...great difference I knpw little on counterpoint....
Il n'est jamais trop tard pour bien faire...mais pour vous rassurer on dit que Schubert n'étudia jamais le contrepoint et pourtant sa grande messe en Mi b majeur en comporte beaucoup. Ecoutez-la avec attention et vous conviendrez qu'il s'en tire au moins aussi magistralement que Palestrina pour mettre le latin d'église en musique...
Go to www.cpdl.org. Search for Palestrina. Under the motets you will find Assumpta est Maria a 6 (there is also a 5-voice offertory starting with the same words, so you need the 6-voice motet). As I checked you can only find a version transposed down a tone. (The piece is notated using high clefs - so-called "high chiavette" - which means that it is not supposed to be sung at written pitch.)
Sublime music beautifully and faultlessly sung.
Absolutely love sacred music! I really miss being in a choir singing these types of songs 🎵

THANKS!!!!!!
What a perfect singalong. (With apologies to the Tallis Scholars, but fortunately they can't hear us.)
Yes, the tempo is not too fast, so we can sing along easily. :)
The Chant is very soothing - way better than listening to "Pope Francis" spout heresy and blasphemy on Italian airliners...
MAESTRO PALESTRINA SHOULD BE CANONIZED FOR THE MIRACLES OF HIS COMPOSITIONS.
