[1] Salve regina

Polyphonic ensemble STX

C-C1; Ct-C3; T-C3. Power inserted a paraphrased Alma redemptoris mater in C (mm. 1-70) but with Salve regina text. In addition, 6-10 pitches of the same antiphon appear in the C at the beginning of each trope verse. Treble domination with text limited to C defines texture for verses 1-6 whereas the three acclamations, verses 7-9 and the three trope verses manifest equality of voices with text underlaid in all voices. The trope Virgo mater[1] scored for two equal voices carries the rubric “Unus” with each verse suggesting that verses should be performed by one singer per part. Triple mensuration characterizes verses 1-7 as well as “Virgo mater,” the first trope verse; “Virgo clemens,” verses 8, “O pia” and 9, “O dulcis Maria” in compound duple mensuration surround “Funde preces,” the third trope verse, in duple mensuration. The words “mater” in verse 1 and “virgo” in verse 9 are omitted in a text set in both melismatic and syllabic styles. Final F for all sections except verses 7 (G), 8 and 9 (C); partial signature with b♭ in lower two voices of three-voice sections of lower voice of two-voice sections.

1. Virgo mater ecclesiae, / Virgin mother of the church
aeterna porta gloriae, / eternal gate to glory,
esto nobis refugium / be a refuge for us
apud Patrem et Filium. / before the Father and the Son,

O clemens! / O gentle one;

Virgo clemens, virgo pia, / Gentle virgin, virgin holy,
virgo dulcis, O Maria, / O sweet virgin Mary,
exaudi preces omnium / hear the prayers of all
ad te pie clamantium. / Who make their dutiful cry to you,

O pia! / O loving one;

Funde preces tuo nato / Pour out your prayers to your Son,
crucifixo, vulnerato, / crucified, wounded,
et pro nobis flagellato / and scourged for our sake,
spinis puncto, felle potato, / pierced with thorns, given gall to drink.

O dulcis Maria, salve. / O sweet Mary, hail!

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.
