However, the Lilypond source code is specially designed to be easy to transpose, change clefs, change music font size, change paper size etc, so users are encouraged to experiment. Corrections and constructive criticism welcomed.

Composer: Andrea Gabrieli

Genre: Sacred, Motet, Vesper Psalm

First published: 1565 in Sacrae cantiones quinque vocum, liber primus, no. 4
Description: A substantial setting in three sections of the whole of Psalm 120 (BCP 121) "I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills", without the Gloria Patri. This is the largest work in Gabrieli's 1565 Sacrae Cantiones. The short middle section uses only the lower four parts. Performance time is around seven minutes.
