General Information

Title: Caligaverunt oculi mei
Composer: Tomás Luis de Victoria

Number of voices: 4vv   Voicings: SATB or ATBB

Genre: Sacred, Tenebrae responsory

Language: Latin
Instruments: A cappella

First published: 1585 in Tenebrae Responsories (Tomás Luis de Victoria), no. 12
    2nd published: 1863 in Musica Divina Vol. IV (Carl Proske), p. 192
Description: for Good Friday.
This moving work forms one of several responsories for Tenebrae. Like the other reponsories, this includes a verse, the response, a verse and another response. The response features a low setting for Altos, Tenors and Basses, and suprises the listener with a piercing treble/soprano note on the words "Si est dolor similis sicut dolor meus". Many people liken this to a cry of pain, as the words translate to "If there is any sorrow like my sorrow".
