Iacobus Gallus: Harmoniae morales
From the very beginning, one of the most important and ambitious goals of the MAMS collection has been the publication of the collected works of Iacobus Handl-Gallus in a modern transcription tailored to the needs of contemporary performers. After the publication of Gallus’s motets (Opus musicum) in thirteen volumes (1985–1990), the Masses (Selectiores quaedam missae) in four volumes (1991), the publication of Gallus’s Harmoniae morales followed in a transcription by Edo Škulj in 1996. Gallus published his 53 4-part pieces in three sections in 1589 and 1590. The edition is enriched by facsimiles from the original collection published by the Prague printer Georg Nigrin (Jiří Černý).
The 2025 digitized post-edition is accompanied by a new preface and an introductory study by Dr Marc Desmet that summarizes and compiles all recent findings about the composer and his work.
