Scores

[1] Salve regina

Polyphonic ensemble SATB

C-G2; A-C1; T-C3; B-F4. “Salve” intonation (T); except for plainsong that accompanies “regina” (C) the remainder of the antiphon lacks references to chant. Textual phrases are delineated through contrasting imitative (verses 2, “vita…,” mm. 7-13, and 3 “Ad te clamamus…,” mm. 13-9) and homophonic (verses 1 “regina…,” mm. 1-7, and 4-9 (mm. 19-59) textures; within the latter category, homorhythmic passages emphasize the syllabic text setting: “illos…converte” (mm. 35-41), “Et Jesum benedictum” (mm. 42-6), “nobis…ostende” and the three acclamations, verses 7-9 (mm. 51-9). Final g, b♭ signature.
[2] Et Jesum

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.
