Selva morale e spirituale (SV 252–288) is the short title of a collection of sacred music by the Italian composer Claudio Monteverdi, published in Venice in 1640 and 1641.
Motetti A Voce Sola Selva morale e spirituale is a collection of individual works, not intended to be performed in that order.
An early recording of the complete collection was performed by the Ensemble Vocal de Lausanne, conducted by Michel Corboz, in 1965 to 1967.
The vocal movements were combined with instrumental works of Giovanni Picchi from his Canzoni da sonar (1625).
It is set for double choir, two violins, four trombones, four viole da gamba (alternative combinations: 3 vga and 1 cello, or 2 and 2) and basso continuo.
