    Anywhere on-line I can find a recording of the "Salve Regina" solemn tone? One chanted in the treble octave would be ideal . . .

    Here is an interesting one, with high voices and sort of breathy and faux-spooky in its way, but still very nice. Umm, also it seems like they sing a ta instead of a ti.

    (I can never get esnips to work in Ffx so try IE)

    oh here is a better one done with either high male voices or low women's voices, hard to tell which. And they sing the right notes, which is nice. See what you think:

    Ah, and here are the monks of Coro Benedictino de Santo Domingo de Silas.

    Jeffrey, the version with the ta is the one from the Liber Usualis; the other two are the version from the Liber Hymnarius.

    I notice that the CMAA's new "Parish Book of Chant" helpfully includes both solemn forms and designates the second (which I much prefer) as "Solemn tone (monastic use)"

    Oh sure, enough, you are right. That's interesting. I guess I knew the monastic use and not the one from LU.
