Lux advenit veneranda
  • Does anyone have a melody for this sequence by Adam of St. Victor, which was sung either on the Feast of the Purification or of the Nativity of the BVM?

    It should be in Les proses d'Adam de Saint-Victor: texte et musique (1900); it is a rather large book, so I haven't found this sequence yet, but it appears in the text-only version.

    EDIT: I downloaded it and found an alphabetic index; the sequence for Purification is Templum cordis adornemus, Nativity of the BVM has Salve, mater Salvatoris, vas. Lux advenit veneranda is only mentioned in the foreword, where it is said that this sequence was contained in Parisian Graduals.

    Too bad about Aubry, but here's one source that seems like it ought to contain music.
