O Sacrum Convivium sheet music

O Sacrum Convivium sheet music on TuneViva currently points to three separately labelled vocal settings: one attributed to Thomas Tallis, one to Roberto Remondi and one to Giovanni Battista Pergolesi. Because the same title appears under different composers, compare voice parts, opening key and listed duration before choosing a score. The entries describe individual scores rather than a single definitive work.

Three settings, not three editions

TuneViva groups several items under the title O Sacrum Convivium, each carrying a different composer name. The Tallis and Pergolesi items are listed for four voice parts, while the Remondi item is listed for two. Treat each as a separate candidate score and select by the composer and scoring you need, rather than assuming they are alternative editions of one composition.

Compare the voice layout first

The Tallis-labelled score lists soprano, alto 1, tenor and bass. The Pergolesi-labelled score lists soprano, contralto, tenore and basso. The Remondi-labelled score lists soprano I and alto. These part labels are practical starting points for matching a score to available singers, but they describe the listed score and should be checked against the edition if original scoring matters.

Use key, metre and tempo as selection clues

Opening details differ across the three entries: the Tallis score has no sharps or flats in 2/2 at 90 BPM; the Remondi score is in E-flat major in 4/4 at 63 BPM; and the Pergolesi score has one flat, given as F major, in 2/2 at 100 BPM. These values help distinguish the scores, but tempo figures in particular may reflect an editorial or file-level marking rather than a composer’s instruction.

Check attribution and edition before performance

The shared title and differing composer labels make attribution the central practical question. The available score entries do not identify a publisher, editor, or whether the music is an original composer version or an arrangement. Before using one for performance or study, confirm the composer, edition and completeness against a reliable score.

The Tallis-labelled O Sacrum Convivium score lists soprano, alto 1, tenor and bass parts. Its opening details give no sharps or flats, a 2/2 time signature and a tempo of 90 BPM; these describe the listed score rather than a definitive edition.

The Pergolesi setting has the longest listed duration at about 6 minutes 19 seconds, followed by the Tallis setting at about 5 minutes 31 seconds and the Remondi setting at about 1 minute 36 seconds. Durations describe the listed scores and should not be treated as fixed performance times.

Do the O Sacrum Convivium scores identify whether they are original versions or arrangements?

The listed O Sacrum Convivium scores do not state whether each is an original composer version or an arrangement; they supply titles, composer labels and voice parts only. Compare the edition information before choosing one for performance or study.
