Original

Tragico tecti syrmate. Clothed with tragic robes. composed by Orlande De Lassus. 1532-1594. For SSSAAA choir. a cappella. Secular. Medium. Choral octavo. Text language. Latin. Published by Treble Clef Music Press. TC.TC-160. With Text language. Latin. Secular. 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.
