| Extra Information | Composer's Note: "Salve, Regina" (Mary We Hail Thee) is a hymn that is popular in Western Christian piety. While authorship of the text has often been unclear, this hymn appears to be an extremely close adaptation, almost word for word, of a poem-prayer composed by the great Orthodox Christian mystic St. Isaac the Syrian in the seventh century. |
