In nomineArticle Free Pass In nomine, style of 16th- and 17th-
century English instrumental ensemble music based on the
plainsong melody of the antiphon (a verse originally sung before
and after a psalm in the Roman Catholic liturgy) “Gloria tibi
Trinitas” (“Glory to Thee, O Trinity”) from the Vesper service
for Trinity Sunday. The In nomine was named after John
Taverner’s setting of the In nomine Domini (“In the name of the
Lord”) section from the Benedictus (a hymn of praise or
thanksgiving) of his mass Gloria tibi Trinitas. He created an
independent composition from this section of the Benedictus,
with arrangements for vocalists, vocalists and instrumentalists,
and keyboard or consort. Taverner’s In nomine Domini served as a
model for similar works by such composers as Christopher Tye,
Thomas Tallis, and John Bull. Although instrumental styles
changed, the title and plainsong melody remained in use through
the time of Henry Purcell (1659–95). What made you want to look
