General Information

Title: Audivi vocem
Composer: Thomas Tallis
Source of text: Jeremiah 40:10 and Matthew 25:6

Number of voices: 4vv   Voicing: SATB

Genre: SacredMotet

Language: Latin
Instruments: a cappella
Published:

Description: Responsorium
A couple of extra points concerning the score to which I previously suggested changes. In bar 9, the alto's first three notes appear to be identical to the soprano's, whereas they should be: whole note B flat, half-note A. In bar 21 the alto's penultimate note (quarter-note F) should be deleted, so that the first note in bar 22 (likewise a quarter-note F) can be brought forward into bar 21. In bar 22, the alto's C sharp should be a half-note and its penultimate note in this bar should be editorially modified to C natural. In bar 28, the tenor should have C sharp rather than C natural, by analogy with bar 7, creating a nice false relation. Some editions also have a passage of plainsong at the end, which is not included here.

Audivi vocem de caelo venientem:
Oleum recondite in vasis vestris,
dum sponsus advenerit.
Media nocte clamor factus est.
Ecce sponsus venit.


English.png English translation by Mick Swithinbank, drawing on the Douay-Rheims Bible translation

I heard a voice from heaven saying:
Lay up the oil in your vessels
when the bridegroom cometh.
At midnight there was a cry made:
Behold the bridegroom cometh.
