Description: Originally attributed to Gombert, this piece is now attributed to Hesdin by Grove Music Online: "Gombert also seems unlikely as the composer of Alleluia spiritus Domini, included in the first edition of a print devoted to his five-voice motets: he does not appear to have played any part in assembling the collection, and the transparent texture of the music, with its frequent antiphonal writing, contrasts sharply with his normal practice. The motet accords stylistically with Hesdin’s more securely attributed compositions, however, so its attribution to him in the Ferrarese print RISM 15397 probably deserves credence."
