Beata es Virgo Maria by Vincenzo Ugolini — Lyrics
;Version 1
Beata es, Virgo Maria,
quae Dominum portasti creatorem mundi:
Genuisti eum, qui te fecit,
et in aeternum permanes virgo.
Alleluia.
Ave Maria gratia plena, Dominus tecum.
;Version 2
Beata es, Virgo Maria, quae credidisti Domino;
perficientur[perfecta sunt] in te, quae dicta sunt tibi a Domino.

About Beata es Virgo Maria
Vincenzo Ugolini was an Italian composer of the early Baroque period. This motet setting Beata es Virgo Maria is a significant example of sacred polyphony from this era, written for a large choir of SATB, SATB, SATB. The Latin text addresses the Virgin Mary, praising her as the Mother of God and a perpetual virgin. It emphasizes her faith and her role as intercessor, recounting her blessedness as she carried the creator of the world and gave birth to him. The motet's rich, eight-part texture provides a grand and devotional setting for this Marian text, making it suitable for liturgical occasions.
