Alba Trissina

Alba Trissina (born 1622) was an Italian composer. She was a nun at the monastery of Araceli in Vicenza, and studied with Leone Leoni. Four motets for alto voice in Leoni's Sacri fiori: quarto libro de motettia are all of her compositions that survive. Her most noted work is Vulnerasti cor meum.[1][2]
