General Information
Title: Agnus Dei
Composer: Thomas Morley
Number of voices: 4vv Voicings: SATB or ATTB
Genre: Sacred, Motet
Language: Latin
Instruments: a cappella
Published: A Plain and Easy Introduction to Practical Music (1597)
Description: This motet was included by Morley in his treatise A Plain and Easy Introduction to Practical Music (1597) as an example of his principles of composition. It is suitable for Lenten or general use, but it is not liturgically suitable for the Ordinary of the Mass, especially since the text is not the same as that of the Mass.
However, while the word nostri is substituted for the usual nobis, this is not grammatically incorrect by any means; the Latin verb misereor (I have mercy) takes the genitive case (here, nostri, another example being Miserere mei; nobis and mihi are the dative of these words, respectively), but often governs the dative in ecclesiastical Latin.
