[1] Vita dulcedo

Polyphonic ensemble SSATB

[Tp I]-C1; [Tp II]-C1; [A]-C3; [T]-C4; [B]-F4. Alternatim setting. A variant[1] of the Spanish version of Salve regina permeates the texture of “vita, dulcedo” with the “salve” motto; chant primarily serves as a cantus firmus usually presented in breves and semibreves throughout the antiphon. Voice placement of cantus firmus varies: B (1.p.), T (2.p.), A (3.p.), T (4.p., “O dulcis,” mm. 98-103), A (4.p., “virgo semper Maria” at pitch, mm. 112-19), and Tp (4.p., “virgo semper Maria,” fifth higher, mm. 119-25). Within an imitative, contrapuntal texture, new material often constructed of motives pervades the non-cantus firmus voices. A declamatory text setting prevails. Final d.

1. Franco most likely used the Psalterium, An[t]iphonarium Sanctorale (Mexico City: Pedro Ochate, 1584) or a closely related source; however, chant associated with “virgo semper Maria” reflects a Spanish chant version in Passionarium Toletanum (Alcalà de Henares: Arnoldo Guillén de Brocar, 1515). On the other hand, chant concurrent with textual phrases “gementes et flentes” and “O dulcis” may reflect a local practice. For transcription of Salve regina chant, see MRM 9, pp. 70-2.

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.
