The double choir Consolamini popule meus, written in 1539, may well be one of the most unusual compositions of its time in Europe. Especially the conclusion can be considered something of a sensation for the 1530s, as it is more reminiscent of a grand finale of the classical era than a composition of the Renaissance.
