About Ave Regina coelorum a 3
A radiant welcome is extended to the Queen of Heaven and Lady of Angels in this setting of the votive antiphon Ave Regina coelorum. The three-part setting for treble voices (soprano, soprano, treble) by Gregor Aichinger brings to life the text which rejoices in Mary as the 'root' and 'gate' from which the world's light arose, and implores her to pray for us. The flowing Latin text, suitable for sacred occasions, is rendered with clarity and devotion, making this a fine choice for choirs seeking an accessible yet expressive Renaissance motet.
