[ES] Las lamentaciones forman parte de los maitines del triduo pascual. Desde la baja edad media se han escrito repertorios de lamentaciones mon?dicas, algunos de ellos con claras concordancias con salmos penitenciales jud?os (como ha se?alado Werner). A partir del renacimiento se escriben lamentaciones polif?nicas combinando pasajes sil?bicos y melism?ticos, permaneciendo siempre un cantus firmus basado en los materiales mon?dicos anteriores.

From the late Middle Ages were written monodic repertoires for lamentations, some of them with clear concomitances with Jewish penitencial psalms (as noted by Werner). From Renaissance polyphonic lamentations written syllabic and melismatic passages combining, always remaining a cantus firmus based on monodic previous materials.
