Vexilla Regis prodeunt, by Venantius Fortunatus (the Bishop of Poitiers in the 6th century) ist the text of one of the most important hymns of the Catholic liturgy. It is sung on Good Friday and, with variatons in the text, can be sung on the feast of the raising of the Holy Cross. A very young Puccini (between 1874 and 1880) set the first and third strophes of the hymn in three parts. It was written for an amateur organist in Bagni di Lucca, where Giacomo occasionally played in a dance orchestra.

Radegund Variations (2017) was written for and is dedicated to Hartmut Siebmanns, cantor and organist in Possneck, in the Thuringia region of Germany. This work was inspired by the life of Radegund (ca. 520-587), who was a Thuringian princess (and later Frankish queen) most famous for founding the Abbey of the Holy Cross in Poitiers, France. The piece begins with an original theme: its contemporary view of ancient modality represents looking back from the present time into Radegund's era. The theme is followed by six contrasting variations, inspiration for which are drawn from events in Radegund's life: her marriage and joining the Frankish court (1st variation); her flight from the court (after the murder of her brother) to seek protection from the church (2nd variation); her devotion to the needy (3rd variation); her friendship with the poet Venantius Fortunatus and her commissioning of his sacred poem Vexilla Regis (4th variation); her gifts of healing (5th variation); and the building of the abbey (6th variation).
