I've used galena for bittering before and was impressed by the "clean" bitter. I've used spalter in late additions, and loved them. That looks like a winner to me!

I'm assuming you're using galena and cascades at 30 minutes for the bittering and to use up some leftovers and I think that will work just fine. Any later and I think the cascades would interfere with the fine aroma of the spalter.
