At the
Dresden Court a motetto
pastorale replaced the
offertorium at the
Christmas Masses, between
the Credo and the
Sanctus. The present work
O admirabile mysterium is
distinguished by its
scoring, unusual for
Ristori, for two soprano
and two alto voices. The
association with Arcadian
pastoral music, a
principal element of
Italian nativity scenes,
is emphasized by the use
of flutes and oboes.
Score available
separately - see item
