Summary/Abstract: This review examines the new edition of what is Palestrina’s only authentic Requiem Mass, together with the Responsory sung with it as part of the liturgy in Rome’s Cappella Giulia. The edition includes a large-scale study of both Palestrina’s compositional technique as well as a detailed study of the other Roman Requiem repertory that he could have known.
