Salve Regina are the opening words of one of the four Breviary anthems of the Blessed Virgin Mary. It is said from the First Vespers of Trinity Sunday until None of the Saturday before Advent.
The traditional ascription to Hermannus Contractus (1013-54) is now rejected by scholars.
Liturgical use: It is one of four Marian antiphons appointed to be sung at the end of Compline during various seasons of the Church year, "Salve Regina" being sung during the "ordinary time" between Pentecost and Advent.
