Ave Maria dive matris Anne

from The Lost Music of Canterbury (Boxed Set) by Blue Heron

/
  • Compact Disc (CD) + Digital Album

    A must-have for any serious collector of early choral music, this is a 5-CD set of the complete music from Blue Heron's groundbreaking, long-term Music from the Peterhouse Partbooks project (2010-2017). The package includes a new 84-page booklet with thousands of words on the works and history by Dr. Nick Sandon, as well as essays by Scott Metcalfe on performance practice, all illustrated with gorgeous color pictures. Complete texts and translations for the complete set are compiled in the single booklet, as well. The discs and booklet come housed in an attractive, early-to open box.

    The set includes mostly world premiere recordings and features masses by Nicholas Ludford, antiphons by Hugh Aston and Richard Pygott, the complete surviving works of Robert Jones, and the gifted though previously completely unknown composers Hugh Sturmy and Robert Hunt, and all but one of the surviving works of John Mason. The missing tenor parts have been supplied by Nick Sandon, who has dedicated much of his professional life to the Peterhouse partbooks, which were copied for Canterbury Cathedral in 1540 and are now named for the college currently housing them, Peterhouse Cambridge.

    Includes unlimited streaming of The Lost Music of Canterbury (Boxed Set) via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.

lyrics

Ave Maria, dive matris Anne filia unica.
Ave Maria, que peperisti puerum virili sine semine.
Ave Maria, Jesum tuum filium lactasti sacro ubere.
Ave Maria, ipsum alluisti tua super genua.
Ave Maria, tres vidisti magos offerentes munera.
Ave Maria, Egyptum fugiens petisti angeli per monita.
Ave Maria, quesisti tuam sobolem magna cum mestitia.
Ave Maria, in templo reperisti docentem evangelia.
Conserva tuos famulos hec per tua merita,
et perduc eos ad celos cum celesti gloria,
psallentes et omnes hoc Ave Maria. Amen.

Hail, Mary, only daughter of the blessed mother Anne.
Hail, Mary, who brought forth a child without the seed of man.
Hail, Mary: you nourished Jesus your son at your sacred breast.
Hail, Mary: you washed him in your lap.
Hail, Mary: you saw three wise men bringing gifts.
Hail, Mary: fleeing, you set out for Egypt, through the angel’s warning.
Hail, Mary: you sought your child with great sorrow.
Hail, Mary: you found him in the temple teaching the Gospels.
Preserve your servants through these your merits,
and lead them to the heavens with celestial glory,
all singing this “Hail, Mary.” Amen.

Translation by Nick Sandon
