Vivanco, Pontac | Motet and Mass Veni dilecte mi

In this volume we publish the Mass Veni dilecte mi for 8 voices by Diego de Pontac (ca. 1602-1654), one of the most appreciated chapel masters in his time, although his works are seldom performed nowadays. This mass is a "parody mass", based on the Marian motet Veni dilecte mi by Sebastián de Vivanco (ca. 1551-1622), whose text is taken from the Song of Songs (7: 11-13). It is known that Pontac succeeded Vivanco in 1622 in the chapel magisterium of the Salamanca Cathedral, so he knew his work well.
