Polyphonic ensemble SAATB

C-G2; A-C2; T-C4; A-C4; B-F4. Entire range, G-f’’. An inversion of the initial pitches of the “salve” motto (d, e♭, d or a, b♭, a) in semibreves (Q, T, B, C) and a paraphrased “salve” motto (App. 4) permeate the imitative texture (mm. 1-8). The “vita” motto (T & B) and initial pitches of plainsong associated with “et spes nostra” of verse 2 introduce the respective textual phrases within a dense texture with rhythmic gestures of minums, semiminums and fusae (mm. 13-31). Verse 5 continues with similar rhythmic and motivic gestures but with reduced number of voices: “Eia ergo advocata,” 2 voices, and “illos…converte,” 3 voices. Following silence (semibreve), the words “et Jesum” are cast as semibreves and a breve; the remainder of verse 6, “benedictum…ostende,” in a homorhythmic texture of independent voices, syllabically accompanies the text. An ascending triadic sequential pattern involving a motive in canon between A & B and the harmonic foundation (E♭, g, B♭) defines the three acclamations (vs. 7, 8 & 9). The motive of three descending pitches (semibreves) forms a half step followed by an interval of a 5th (e♭, d, g); the initial pitch of the three motivic statements mirror the basic harmonies. Surrounding melodic/rhythmic gestures complement the canonic voices. Final g, b♭ signature.

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.
