Program Notes
Jesu dulcis memoria, originally composed for voices, is a motet arranged for flexible winds and strings.
- Program Note from publisher
Jesu dulcis memoria is a Christian hymn often attributed to Saint Bernard of Clairvaux. The name can refer either to the entire poem, which, depending on the manuscript, ranges from forty-two to fifty-three stanzas, or only the first part.
Several English hymns sung today are based on translations of Jesu dulcis memoria. These include Jesus, Thou Joy of Loving Hearts (1858 translation by Ray Palmer) and Jesus, the Very Thought of Thee (1849 translation by Edward Caswall).
The tune to which the hymn was sung can be heard at Oremus Hymnal. It has also been set to music by Giovanni Pierluigi da Palestrina, Tomás Luis de Victoria, and others.
