    I have the wonderful situation of a deacon candidate wishing to learn how to chant, particularly to be able to chant the Gospel readings once he is ordained. Any help and guidance in this would be most appreciated, especially where to locate the Lectionary chants, if any do exist.

    For the readings, there is a wonderful tutorial in the Liber Usualis. It is on MusicaSacra.com. Just print out what you need. Requires a bit of practice but it is surprisingly easy actually.

    I put together a handout on singing the lessons for our workshop in Chicago in October. If you would send me an e-mail with your postal address, I will send you a copy. mahrt@stanford.edu
