I didn't spot it in a leaf-though of 1684 either. A couple of surprises were the "Credendi" verse included with Victimae, and ERHALT UNS as Bey deiner Kirch erhalt us Herr with Turk &a…

I too lean more to Holst than Darke, but while I'm usually on board with Alice Parker, Liam will perhaps forgive me if I say that arrangement strikes me as gilding-the-lily-by-numbers. We do ITB…

The first version certainly needs a shoehorn if not violence on a Cinderella stepsister scale, and the risible second is obviously with non-francophones. But it's amazing how many results Google…

Not the requested simple, but here are two 'difficult' versions in a handout I made for an audience sing-along.

The Antico print is indeed missing from IMSLP. What do you consider the shortcomings?

Thanked by 1Quaerens
Interval drilling is fine, but I suggest you combine it with actual music. There's an immense amount you can learn from mastering just one of Webern's Lieder, or the alto solo from Stravins…

My preference is for less piano-centric settings, but neat Kyrie! A couple of minor details: the altos are not in an efficient register for Sanctus. Why not score as earlier at "in gloria Dei Pa…

I can second those recommendations: we read through both Palestrina last night.

"…not savor," is fine I guess, but Your brutal deeds and cruelty seems the obvious solution.

One never knows though. I filled in for our Saturday Vigil and had to make a face and cup an ear before "At the Lamb's high Feast" finally got going.

For our spoken Creed I'm tempted to print up

Everyone though, I'm pretty sure, would think "Nota be…

Yikes! As long as it won't fit a single page it's a good idea to write out the first strain twice, without a repeat sign. But yes, it's an appealing tune.
