Alleluia Match

Here’s a request. Make the little “Benedicta tu in mulieribus” antiphon from Matins of the Little Office of the Blessed Virgin Mary into an Alleluia for a small Novus Ordo Mass for Our Lady of Mt Carmel.

Sure.

Here is the Antiphon, note Mode 4:

Benedicta tu, mode 4

Here is a Mode 4 Alleluia from the Graduale Simplex:

Alleluia

Problem is, the first one has Re as the reciting tone, the second has Fa, so they sound a bit strange together, but I think it’s still better than the ubiquitous mode 6 Alleluia from the Easter Vigil.
