Ave regina coelorum

Polyphonic ensemble SSB

C I-C1; C II-C1; B-C3. “Ave” intonation in C I. Chant (App. 2), cast in semibreves, permeates the texture at the beginning of textual phrases (“regina” and “salve radix”). Within a primarily imitative contrapuntal fabric involving chant and new material, textual sections are delineated by cadences, texture and mensural changes. “Gaude…speciosa,” in triple mensuration and homorhythmic texture (mm. 29-35) complements trochaic prosody.[1] Declamatory style defines the Pre-Tridentine text. Final F, b♭ signature.

1. To emphasize textual/musical structure and complement trochaic prosody of “gaude…speciosa,” triple mensuration and homophony defines Ave regina caelorum settings by G. Aichinger (AC002 & AC003), F. Anerio (AC006), G. Bassano (AC016 & AC017), A. Gabrieli (AC047), R. de Lassus (AC072), G. de Macque (AC076), G. P. Palestrina (AC099), P. Philip (AC106), E.

Ave, regina caelorum,
Ave, domina angelorum:
Salve, radix, salve, porta,
Ex qua mundo lux est orta:

Gaude, virgo gloriosa,
Super omnes speciosa,
Vale, o valde decora,
Et pro nobis Christum exora.
