Introit Antiphon: Respice, Domine, Heinrich Isaac (c.1450–1517)
Offertory Antiphon: In Te Speravi, Orlandus Lassus (c.1532–1594)
Motet after Offertory: Surge Amica Mea, Giovanni Matteo Asola (c. 1532–1609)
Communion Antiphon: Panem de Cœlo, Heinrich Isaac
Surge, Amica Mea is text taken from the Song of Solomon 2:14: Arise, my love, my fair one, and come away. O my dove, who is in the clefts of the rock, in the secret places of the stairs, let me see your countenance, let me hear your voice; for sweet is your voice, and your countenance is beautiful.
The communion antiphon is a setting by Heinrich Isaac. The text of the antiphon is: Thou hast given us bread from heaven, O Lord, having in it all that is delicious, and every taste of sweetness. This passage taken from Wisdom 16:20 is a slight variation of the verse and response just prior to Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament. Isaac’s setting retains the original Gregorian melody in the Tenor voice.
Heinrich Isaac (c.1450–1517) was a Renaissance composer from the South Netherlandish region. His output was rivaled only by Orlandus Lassus in number and variety of composition. Most notable of his collections is Choralis Constantinus which contains nearly 400 Gregorian chant based motets of propers for the Mass.
