Salve Regina Ghy syt - Vinders, Hieronymus

📄

Preview not generated yet

"The soprano part of this Salve regina repeatedly -and exclusively- uses the melody of Johannes Ghiselin’s song “Ghy syt die wertste boven al’, which in this choirbook became “Ghy syt de liefte boven al”. It’s pretty obvious that the first four notes of Ghiselin’s original melody gave Vinders the idea of incorporating it in a Salve regina in which also the chant melody plays an important role. The other parts alternate melodic material from that Gregorian melody with freely composed material. The "O pia" has an extra part in the mezzo-soprano range."
