    Did the original Jubilate Deo contain a repertoire of hymns? If so, what were they?

    I'm seeing lists on the web with various contents (some with the Te Deum and some without, for example).

    Were local variations allowed? Any thoughts?

    Kathy, I think the Te Deum was not in the original 1974 edition, but it was included in the 1987 edition.

    I know that this may be had from GIA, but not in chant notation. Does anyone know of a currently available chant notation edition. I have one copy of the original edition, but would like to have the newer version properly noted.

    Way back in 1974, with a fresh degree in organ performance, I was trying to figure out what was going on in Catholic church music. I thought it might be good for me to know something since I had been hired as DM for the Archdiocesan cathedral. Imagine my delight when the rector of the cathedral, a bishop, handed me a lovely illuminated copy of Jubilate Deo and told me it had been sent to all the bishops from Rome. Visions of chant and chant based choral and organ repertoire wafted through my head. Imagine my dismay when I realized he was giving it to me because neither he nor anyone else at the cathedral or in the chancery had any interest in chant - and otherwise he would just have thrown it away. He actually told me that he would have tossed it.

    Slowly I turned, and it began to dawn on me that there was a gaping chasm between the official church writings on liturgy and music and the practice on the ground. It was not all bad, though, because, since they did not particularly care about how music fit into the liturgy, I had more time to practice repertoire (which they also did not care about).

    I still have the copy of Jubilate Deo. It is lovely and underused.
