Thomas Tallis composed Spem in alium nunquam habui around the year 1570 based on the Latin text from a response (at Matins for the 3rd lesson, during the 5th week of September) in the Sarum Rite, adapted from the Book of Judith. The first line translates as I have never put my hope in any other but in Thee, God of Israel. Originally scored for eight 5-part choirs, has been arranged here for clarinet choir by Matt Johnston. The 40 core parts for soprano and bass clarinets are provided in the set. Additional parts for E-flat Clarinet, Alto Clarinet, Basset Horn, Contralto Clarinet and String Bass are available upon request.
