1 Lambe's surviving compositions comprise one setting of the Magnificat and seven Marian votive antiphons.

2 Mary had her Magnificat,which sounds like scripture.

5 Earlier this year, I set my cassette recorder to tape Bach's Magnificat in D from an original recording.

6 In the Latin the first word of the song that Mary says is magnificat, that is "magnifies,""my soul magnifies the Lord."
