Partitions

Regina caeli

Polyphonic ensemble SATB

C-C4; A-C4; T-C4; B-F4.[1] Voci pari. Range, E♭-d’. Chant (App. 3) defines C with either specific quotations in long note values (e.g., “regina,” breves and longae, mm. 1-8) or paraphrased plainsong (e.g., “ora…deum,” mm. 52-8). Plainsong associated with initial text of lines 2-4 (“quia quem…,” “resurrexit” and “ora…”), specific words (“laetare,” “portare” and “sicut dixit”), as well as “alleluia” sections permeates the imitative, polyphonic texture. The final “alleluia” (mm. 58-86) comprises more than a third of the antiphon. Text setting combines syllabic and melismatic (“coeli,” A, T, B, mm. 4-9; “portare,” A, T, B, mm. 28-32; and “Deum,” C, T, mm. 54-7) styles Final F, b♭ signature.

1. Voice designations (C, A, T, B) represent respective part books; clefs suggest range of voices.

Regina caeli laetare, alleluia;
Quia quem meruisti portare, alleluia,
Resurrexit, sicut dixit, alleluia,
Ora pro nobis Deum, alleluia.

The Trope:

Alle Domine nate matris Deus alme nobis confer praestaque vivere:
Quam [quoniam] te decet laus honor O Domine qui de morte surgebas rex pie:
Fac nos tecum surgere, alleluia.
