For serviamscores's sake, most of the proper texts may be found in the Anglican Use Gradual 1st edition, pdf online. Other anthem-worthy anglocatholic collects and prayers may be found in the S…

This has a beautiful simplicity. Would be a good basis for a Litany. The first time I listened I thought it would fit Psalm 22 very well.

This particular piece was inspired by the Virgin Mother's passion at the creche; she who wraps the infant king in swaddling clothes on her knee, observes him gently sleeping on the manger-wood a…

Gorgeous and very accessible! The 3rd verse is particularly beautiful text painting. I found myself bound up in the wandering harmonies, initially puzzled--but now I think they suit the theme, as t…

In the 2 parishes where I have experience implementing the congregationally sung Creed, it took about a year for everyone to get the hang of it (Merbecke, ordinariate context). I would disagree with …

Sorry I can't answer the 1st question.
As for the second dilemma, the ordinariate hymnal in its latest draft does not contain credo I. As far as I can remember from the ordinariate musi…

Because I believe in vernacular plainsong, I believe the gradual is the best option between readings, I want to enrich the OF with this musical form, I have some competent authorities telling me it&#…

As for the question of the gradual in the vernacular- I am in complete disagreement that a plain reading of the GIRM text makes it illicit on its face. I would go as far as to say it is plainly lic…

I came here to thank someone on this forum-who I can't remember!- who suggested the sotto voce rehearsal. I asked the choir last rehearsal to forget dynamics and sing everything sotto voce for t…

I composed this simple hymn for Candlemas/Purification of the B.V.M., our parish's solemnity of title. The text itself is a sequence for this feast, in translation by W.J. Copeland, an Anglican…

I am deeply fond of this hymn, which I have always felt most appropriate on Advent IV, when at the Gospel the Rose Himself blossoms forth in the womb of Mary, who is made manifest as the Root of Jess…
