Performance of the Gregorian Salve Regina coupled with Josquin DesPres's cantus firmus motet in my own performance edition. 

The motet is a marvel of musical craftsmanship: not only does it utilize the Gregorian chant in its entirety in the Alto voice, but its structure is a strict double canon throughout: Soprano/Alto sing one strict canon; Tenor/Bass sing a different strict canon. Performed by Voces Novae et Antiquae under my direction May 16, 2004, in Philadelphia, PA.

The performing edition is also available from me directly: <info@robertamross.com>

Background from Wikipedia:

The *Salve Regina,* also known as the "Hail Holy Queen," is a Marian hymn and one of four Marian antiphons sung at different seasons within the Christian liturgical calendar of the Roman Catholic Church. The *Salve Regina* is traditionally sung at Compline in the time from the Saturday before Trinity Sunday until the Friday before the first Sunday of Advent. "Hail Holy Queen" is also the final prayer of the Rosary.

The work was composed during the Middle Ages by German monk Hermann of Reichenau and originally appeared in Latin, the prevalent language of Western Christianity until modern times.

(Premier pars:)
Salve, Regina, Mater misericordiæ,
vita, dulcedo, et spes nostra, salve.
Ad te clamamus exsules filii Hevæ,
Ad te suspiramus, gementes et flentes
in hac lacrimarum valle.
Eia, ergo, advocata nostra, illos tuos
misericordes oculos ad nos converte;

(Secunda pars:)
Et Jesum, benedictum fructum ventris tui,
nobis post hoc exsilium ostende.
O clemens, O pia, O dulcis Virgo Maria.

Hail, holy Queen, Mother of Mercy,
hail our life, our sweetness and our hope.
To thee do we cry, poor banished children of Eve;
to thee do we send up our sighs,
mourning and weeping in this valley of tears.
Turn then, most gracious advocate,
thine eyes of mercy toward us;
and after this our exile,
show unto us the blessed fruit of thy womb, Jesus.
O clement, O loving, O sweet Virgin Mary.

"Welcome to Synneria" is the hot breath that heralds arrival at the last city before the end. Built on the edge of the Tennura Desert, Synneria pulses with winding, dance-like rhythms that reflect the chaos and beauty of a place where anything can happen, and almost always does. Here, Luci and Loufric, weary and hunted, seek refuge among swindlers and souls consumed by desert fever. The dialogue that opens the track is a forewarning of a greater crossing, where each step echoes through stone and sand. But the desert still awaits, and fate will find them further ahead, in the song "The Scorpion's Path", where Akrios will emerge to guide them beyond what the eyes can see.

Veni Creator Spiritus - Canto Gregoriano

(Lc. 1, 28.42)  Ave Maria gratia plena dominus tecum * benedicta tu in mulieribus et benedictus fructus ventris tui. 
(cf. Lc. 1, 34-35)  V. Quomodo in me fiet hoc que virum non cognosco 
                                    Spiritus domini superveniet in te et virtus altissimi obumbrabit tibi. 
                               V. Ideoque quod nascetur ex te sanctum vocabitur filius dei.*
