Editor: Andreas Stenberg (submitted 2022-10-24).   Score information: A4, 6 pages, 139 kB   Copyright: CPDL

Edition notes: A semi-diplomatic edition: scores for the voices (both in the original key and transposed down a fifth to accommodate performance with a Lute in G) and the intavolations. The Lute intavolation is given both in the original Italian tablature and in French tablature.

General Information

Title: Jesus in pace imperat
Composer: Giovanni Maria Nanino
Lyricist:
Number of voices: 4vv   Voicing: SSAT
Genre: Sacred, Madrigal

Language: Latin
Instruments: A cappella

First published: 1586 in Diletto spirituale (Simone Verovio), no. 27
Description: The Source gives parts for the Voices, an intavolation for Gravicembalo and an intavolation for lute (in Italian tablature). The original clefs of the parts are in Chiavette (g, c2, c3 and c4 clefs). Though the Gravicembalo intavolation is in the same key as the voices a transposition down by a fifth is needed to accommodate a performance with the lute if the tablature is played on the common g-lute.

  IESUS in pace imperat
  Qua' omnem sensum superat
  Hunc mea mens desiderat
  Et illo frui properat.
