    Palm Sunday at Walsingham -

    All the Palmer-Burgess psalms, antiphons, and propers
    The adaptation of the Cum jubilo mass as found in the 1940
    At the Entrance into the Cathedral - 'All Glory, Laud, and Honour' - St Theodulph
    Tract - Psalm XXII, Deus, Deus meus - Chant, Sir John Goss
    Offertory anthem - 'O Saviour of the World' - Sir John Goss
    Communions - Trisagion (which we traditionally sing throughout Lent)
    Communion anthem - 'God so Loved the World' - Sir John Stainer
    Hymn at the Dismissal - 'Ah, Holy Jesus' - Herzliebster Jesu

    (As one can see, anthem-wise we had a rather Victorian day.)
    (You should hear three hundred people singing Kyrie cum jubilo.
    Oh dear, I forgot: Catholics aren't supposed to be able to do that.
    Oh well, try it! Catholics can do that.)

    We had Anerio for the Gospel acclamation: Christus factus est, at Franciscan. It was glorious. They sang an Anglican chant psalm by Paul Weber and one of his students, John Brodeur. The Gospel was the Dom Columba Kelly adaptation with the tonus planctus conclusion. They sang the Crucem tuam, the Cox adaptation of the Reproaches, and the ICEL Crux fidelis at the Adoration and “O Sacred Head Surrounded” for Communion.

    At St. Peter’s in Steubenville where I was MC they sang the plainchant in Latin at the Adoration. I cannot remember anything else more specifically...

    An update, what Holy Saturday did sound like at my parish:

    After an entirely unaccompanied Good Friday, was astonished to find that massive meteorological changes had thrown everything out of tune with my reeds. Both I and the congregation were treated to some very French sonorities, which I exploited with some very French improvisations.

    These, incidentally (and I was quite surprised) were very well received. Particularly my improvisation during the incensation at the Offertory on Holy Saturday.

    The only hiccup in the whole weekend was at the last Mass on Easter Sunday, when a stray smell of burning components made its way from heaven knows where to the gallery, and succeeded in convincing both me and the choir that the organ was about to catch fire again, unjustly foreshortening the Offertory hymn, and depriving it of an improvisation. Alas.

    We omitted the Alleluia chant (so dissapointed!) and did Jesus Christ is Risen Today 2 semitones down... My organist likes the transposer just a bit too much...

    The devil is in the details with those transposers. After the console rebuild on the mighty Schantz last summer, I now have a transposer. Yes, it can be convenient. Unfortunately, I have some aging singers who think they can rely on it rather than do the vocal exercises necessary to maintain their ranges.

    My director used to bring things down -6 for some pieces, that was so horrible. But even worse, there is a choir in my church who transposes literally everything -4 or -5. I can't sing with them and its all because there is one singer who wants to do some harmony so they need it down so far... I can only sing so low as a tenor...

    and the ubiquitous ALLELUIA, ALLELUIA set to Beethoven’s Ode to Joy from his 9th Symphony are all to be considered great moments among the Easter repertoire.
    Is this like that Ave Maria, in which the only words sung are Alleluia?
    ? Here it is, all 4 verses:

    Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia, Al-lelu!
    Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia, Al-lelu!
    Alleluia, Alle-luia, Alleluia, Al-lelu!
    Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia, Al-lelu!

    Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia, Al-lelu!
    Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia, Al-lelu!
    Alleluia, Alle-luia, Alle-luia, Al-lelu!
    Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia, Al-lelu!

    Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia, Al-lelu!
    Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia, Al-lelu!
    Alleluia, Alle-luia, Alleluia, Al-lelu!
    Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia, Al-lelu!

    Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia, Al-lelu!
    Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia, Al-lelu!
    Alleluia, Alle-luia, Alle-luia, Al-lelu!
    Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia, Al-lelu!

    And, if done right with the original rhythm, it should be (one stanza only):

    Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia, Al-lelu!
    Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia, Al-lelu!
    Alleluia, Alle-luia, Alle-luia, Al-lelu! Al-
    -leluia, Alleluia, Alleluia, Al-lelu!

    It sounds like it is over for another year - Thanks be to God.

    Christ is risen and I'm dead or nearly so. An exhausting week.
