    Hello!

    There are several Gregorian chant accompaniments that I desperately need to find. Is there an easier way to navigate the Nova Organi Harmonia? Is there a database? I spent hours navigating the PDFs (http://www.ccwatershed.org/blog/2013/aug/17/nova-organi-harmonia/), but with very little success:

    I need:
    1. Sperent in te
    2. 4 Sanctus settings (2 for Lent, 1 on Easter Sunday, and 1 during the Easter season)

    Thank you so much.
    Thanked by 1Jes

    "Sperent in te" is in Volume II, p,. 148, on the Third Sunday after Pentecost.

    The Mass settings are in Volume V; see the table of contents on page iv for:
    Mass I (Easter season)
    Mass XVII (Lent/Advent)
    etc.

    I used to find this so difficult to navigate on my PC so I got a second hand iPad and used iBooks and now it is so easy cos I can do a search of all the books at once and the keyword will come up in all the possible places. Lenovo Thinkpads also have this capability, they use a really cool pdf reading software.

    I find it very good to have a Liber Usualis handy. It has indices in the back for incipits of all the different chants of the Mass and the Office. Once you know the day or Mass, it's much easier to find in the NOH.

    Perhaps someone could put together an index of these books?


    English Incipit - Latin Incipit - Page 1

    English Incipit - Latin Incipit - Page 2

    English Incipit - Latin Incipit - Page 3


    etc.
