Scores

[1] Salve regina

Polyphonic ensemble SSATB

C I-G2; C II-G2; A-C3; T-C3; B-F4. Within an imitative, contrapuntal texture chant (App. 4) motives most notably introduce verses 1 (“salve”), 2 (“vita”), 6 (“Et Jesum”) and specific words (e.g., “nobis,” mm. 49-52. In C II the text “vita” lacks the “salve” motto; however, the motto accompanies “et spes nostra,” mm. 12-3. Like Prenner”s four-voice setting (SR217), this motet is constructed of a series of overlapping phrases with the exception of verse 9 that is preceded by a semibreve rest in all voices. The word “mater” is omitted from verse 1 but is added in verse 9, “O dulcis virgo mater Maria.” Declamatory text setting in syllabic style prevails. Final g, b♭ signature.
[2] Et Jesum

Polyphonic ensemble SSATB

Salve, regina, mater misericordiae;

Vita, dulcedo et spes nostra, salve.

Ad te clamamus exsules filii Hevae.

Ad te suspiramus gementes et flentes in hac lacrimarum valle.

Eia ergo, advocata nostra, illos tuos misericordes oculos ad nos converte.

Et Jesum, benedictum fructum ventris tui, nobis post hoc exsilium ostende.

O clemens,

O pia,

O dulcis virgo Maria.
