New Feature Alert


It’s now easier than ever to see both the author's and the composer's versions of a text!

After more than a year in development, I'm thrilled to announce that we've finally implemented the ability to view "sung texts" with all the modifications by a given composer already applied. Over 10,000 pages will benefit from this improvement. It should especially benefit those of you who need accurate texts for concert programs and CD booklets.

I'm excited to share this new feature with all of you and hope that it enhances your experience on the LiederNet Archive. Take some time to explore and enjoy! — Emily

Pater noster / Ave Maria

Set by Josquin des Prez (c1440 - 1521), "Pater noster / Ave Maria" [ chorus ] [Sung Text]

Note: this setting is made up of several separate texts.


Pater noster, Qui es in cælis,
sanctificetur nomen Tuum;
adveniat regnum tuum;
fiat voluntas tua,
sicut in cælo et in terra.
Panem nostrum quotidianum da nobis hodie;
et dimitte nobis debita nostra,
sicut et nos dimittimus debitoribus nostris;
et ne nos inducas in tentationem;
sed libera nos a malo. Amen.

Ave Maria gratia plena
Dominus tecum. 
Benedicta tu in mulieribus, 
Et benedictus fructus ventris tui Jesus.
Sancta Maria, Mater Dei,
Ora pro nobis peccatoribus,
Nunc et in hora mortis nostrae.
Ave Maria.
