Ave Maris Stella

I watched Zeffirelli's Romeo and Juliet again this week. It's the first time since I am Catholic. I failed to notice most of the Catholic elements in it in my earlier viewings. The music, in particular, is interesting. There's a part of the film that features the melody of the Salve Regina chant. And, then there's this setting of the Ave Maris Stella by Nino Rota, who composed the film's soundtrack. It only has the first stanza of the Ave Maris Stella, combined with portions from the Hail Mary and Salve Regina.
