The verso is a genre in Iberian organ music, a local variant of the organ mass verset or alternatim.
The most prominent examples of the verso or verset in Spanish Baroque organ music are the "Versos tertii toni" of Antonio Cabezón, and "Verso para orquesta" of Ignacio de Jerusalem with lesser known examples such as "Versos de quatro tono" of Carmelite friar Pedro Carrera y Lanchares and "Versos de Kyrie" of Portuguese composer Manuel Rodrigues Coelho. The vocal lines were not always sung, and today usually not performed or recorded.
Modern compositions paying homage to the Baroque "verso" include Roberto Sierra (b.1953) "4 Versos" for cello and orchestra.
