Two Treble Motets

- Aurelio Porfiri

 


PDF Sample

Use: Marian, General
Required Resources: unison and 2-part choir, organ
Language: Latin

These two short treble motets are for unison choir, with occasional measures for SA. The texts set are: 1. Ave maris stella (Hail, Star of the Sea) and 2. Iesu dulcis memoria (The Sweet Thought of Jesus). Each has two verses with a closing Amen.

The writing is clear and the organ accompaniment supports the vocal lines well. These simple yet versatile pieces are perfect for any treble choir!

The texts are translated:

  1. Hail, O Star of the sea, God's own Mother blest,
    ever sinless Virgin, gate of heav'nly rest.
  2. Taking that sweet Ave, which from Gabriel came,
    peace confirm within us, changing Eve's name.
  1. The sweet memory of Jesus Giving true joy to the heart,
    But more than honey and all things [does so] His sweet presence.
  2. Nothing more delightful is sung, Nothing more pleasing heard,
    Nothing sweeter though, Than Jesus, the Son of God.
