음반 정보

성모 마리아 찬가 <Ave gracia plena>

성모 마리아께 기도를 바치는 것은 로마 카톨릭의 오랜 전통이며, 때문에 많은 마리아 찬가들이 작곡되었다. 이 앨범에서는 전통적인 교회력에 의해 대림절에서 다음 대림절까지 네 시기로 나누어 음악을 소개하고 있다. 마리아 찬가를 많이 쓴 것으로 유명한 빅토리아의 아베마리아를 비롯, 버드, 브루크너, 홀스트의 아베 마리아 그리고 팔레스트리나 등 다양한 마리아 찬가들이 불려지는데 캠브리지 싱어즈의 단아하고 깔끔한 해석이 유난히 돋보이는 음반이다. / 수입-영국

Hail! Queen of Heaven

This recording, made in the architecturally and acoustically glorious setting of the Lady Chapel of Ely Cathedral by the twenty-eight unaccompanied mixed voices of the Cambridge Singers, gathers together twenty-one examples of the extraordinary wealth of choral music inspired by the Virgin Mary.

Ever since the early centuries of Christian history, the Virgin Mary has played a significant role in worship. At the Council of Ephesus in 431 she was accorded the title of Mother of God, worthy of veneration above all other saints, and feast days dedicated to her began to appear in the church calendar, the most important being the Annunciation, the Nativity and the Assumption. The musical implications of this are clear: feasts call for specially elaborate music, and so a repertory of Marian music began to develop, especially in monastic institutions, where up to eight acts of worship were held each day. Prominent in this repertory are the four beautiful Antiphons of the Blessed Virgin Mary which frame this recording. These were composed in the turbulent centuries of the Crusades, the ending of which in 1291 marked the start of a period of especially intense devotion to Mary, perhaps in reaction to the violence and bloodshed that had gone before. The building of Lady Chapels in cathedrals and other churches was a notable symbol of this—nowhere more so than at Ely, whose huge and impressive Lady Chapel is virtually a separate structure from the main cathedral, its interior walls covered with stone carvings depicting the life and miracles of the Virgin. Mary became a popular subject of paintings and poetry, often being likened to a rose (an image going back to the Rose of Jericho in Ecclesiasticus); the delicately lovely English carol There is no rose of such virtue exemplifies this facet of Marianism at its height in the fifteenth century.

In England, of course, all this changed with the Reformation, when the singing of Marian music and veneration of the image of any saint was brought to an end, although the 1549 Book of Common Prayer did retain the principal feast days of Mary. In Italy and Spain, however, the Reformation had the effect of redoubling Catholic fervour, with the Jesuit order being founded in 1534 and the Council of Trent (1545–63) defining Catholic doctrine and reforming its practice. The church music of Victoria and Guerrero typifies this spirit of Counter-Reformation; and it is easy to see a work like Palestrina’s Stabat Mater as a musical counterpart to the great Renaissance pietàs which made real to the beholder the human grief of Mary at the Cross.

If the influence of the Reformation on the Catholic church was at least partly negative
and reactionary, as far as the Orthodox church is concerned it was wholly negligible: Tchaikovsky’s and Stravinsky’s short hymns to the Virgin remind us of a centuries-old tradition of worship in which she had always been profoundly venerated. In northern Europe, on the other hand, Mary went underground, and it was not until well after the Catholic emancipation of the nineteenth century (given artistic focus in England by the Oxford Movement) that such overtly Marian pieces as Holst’s Ave Maria, Wood’s Hail! Blessed Virgin Mary and Howells’s Regina caeli began to reappear. In Catholic countries, popular devotion to the Virgin was given new impetus by the miraculous apparitions of the nineteenth century (Villette’s Hymne à la Vierge would not be out of place at Lourdes), while in Protestant countries a more relaxed attitude to Mary has allowed such ‘Catholic’ (and cross-cultural) manifestations as Giles Swayne’s Latin Magnificat based on a Senegalese ploughing-song to take their place in the normally tranquil atmosphere of Anglican Evensong.

Scholars, theologians, believers and non-believers will probably continue to debate
the role and significance of the Virgin Mary until the end of time; but music-lovers are free simply to enjoy and be enriched by her marvellous legacy of music. Thus, the pieces heard on this recording, although grouped under four seasonal headings, do not in any sense form a strict liturgical sequence, nor are they ordered chronologically or by nationality. Rather, each piece could be thought of as an individual tile in a mosaic picture of the first-century woman of whom, really, we know so little but who has given inspiration and solace to so many.
