Deus in Adjutorium (in original key of D) [Alf:81-BQ24154A]

Originally written for orchestra and a large choir, this powerful work was to be performed in a large church in Venice, perhaps even Saint Mark's Cathedral. One Monteverdi scholar believes that this was written as a kind of "job interview" for a position as a composer in Venice. It has been arranged here for brass quintet and organ in the original key of D.
