Title: Que cuando se engendra la perla divina
Composer: Francisco Valls

Number of voices: 4vv   Voicing: SSAT
Genre: SacredVillancico

Language: Spanish
Instruments: Basso continuo
Published: 1742

Description: From "Mapa Armonico Practico". Facsimile manuscript, including this score, published by Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Cientificas. Score uses non-standard notation including void notes and (it seems) different colours to indicate values of notes (facsimile is monochrome).

The composer introduces the work with these words: "El que se sigue es un fragmento de un villancico de Nuestra Señora, a 4. Van trocadas las cuatro vozes ocho compases, que es lo que permite la cadencia de la composición, que siendo para cantarse, no debe ir tan atada a las reglas, por las razones dichas en otra parte."

Que cuando se encuentra
la perla divina
con blanco arribol
la gracia el rocio la concha fue amor
el nacar la sangre prevista de Dios.
