Art,

Yes, you are correct, that Valderrabano intabulated the "other" Missa beata 
virgine, this one by Morales.

Actually, 4 of the Valderrabano duets have text, but like the Milan songs, 
the vocal line is also included on one of the vihuela parts.

The vihuela quartet is forming......... does anyone have a good idea for a 
name for a vihuela quartet?  Please, do not call it the "vihuela quartet".
