Intabulation of the four-voice setting of the motet “Veni Domine” by Morales. This setting is unrelated to the better-known six-voice setting that is edited in the Opera Omnia vol. 5, p.146 (Monumentos de la Música Española, XX). This motet is not in the collected works as it was only discovered after the completion of the collected works, discovered by Eleanor Russell in the music archive of the Cathedral of Valladolid. Formerly described as “sin signatura” this MS is now known as Valladolid, MS 21. See: https://hispanicpolyphony.eu/source/13743
