About Spem in Alium

Composed circa 1570, this motet is constructed of 40 different vocal parts. It is normally sung by 8 choirs of 5 voices. Every voice sings its own individual part. Text Latin The original Latin text of the motet is from a response (at Matins, for the 3rd Lesson, during the V week of September), in the Sarum Rite, adapted from the Book of Judith. Today the response appears in the Divine Office of the Latin rite in the Office of Readings (formerly called Matins) following the first lesson on Tuesday of the 29th Week of the Year. .
