Chant notation in Finale
I much prefer using the meinrad fonts and Adobe Indesign for chant engraving as you have much more flexibility over where things go (specifically how vowels line up with notes). It’s not the easiest or best use of time - I’ve used Gregorio editors w…

Kneeling when the tabernacle is opened
I kneel at the start of the Agnus Dei in the N.O. Too. I don’t want to wave at anybody while Jesus is out.

What constitutes "part time" or "full time" duties?
I set my own editions for volunteers and prof. singers alike, so my preparation is the same for both. Rehearsal time is definitely less with a prof. schola vs. volunteers. I have a volunteer choir, some budget for “tolle et lege” singers as needed (…

Candlemas 2023
Thank you for your time spent on this one! I am working on a clean edition of Palestrina's Missa de Beata Virgine a 4 -- quite a project -- so I understand completely! It takes a lot of time, double checking, referring back to manuscript, etc. …

Music for Spanish Mass
I agree with the Ignatius "Canta La Misa"; however beware there are many grammatical errors in the spanish responsorial psalm and alleluia/other texts. Another place for propers is the Spanish Propers Project https://spanishpropers.com/

Program for the Funeral Mass for Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI
Can anyone identify the setting(s) used by the schola? Edit: I suspect Palestrina, at least for the Ordinary. Kyrie and Offertory were Palestrina - Missa Pro Defunctis a 5. The rest of the Mass was plainchant with the exception of a Benedictus ad…

examples of same setting, different texts?
I am resurrecting this thread to share that a priest commented on this in his sermon at a wedding I recently attended. He noted that it may be a symbol of the "death to oneself" required in becoming "no longer two but one flesh."…

"First Right of Refusal" ??
Here the diocese has banned bench fees. ROFR is standard though and should always be respected. However, sometimes people and groups come in outside of the regular parish schedule with their own musician already and when that happens there ain’t not…

Brass Parts for Missa de Angelis?
I would suggest not doing this as you are thinking. If you are going to use brass with the chant, use them for a lively introduction between the "Gloria in excelsis Deo" and the rest of the prayer and perhaps add them back in on the Amen o…
