Need a /source/cite for this
  • I have the attached music for Ordination and need a source/cite. Does anyone know where this came from? It was passed on to me through the music grapevine....Thanks all.

  • Okay I see that it is an adaptation of the Gregorian from the Ordinatione Presbyterorum. Do I need to attribute it to anyone in the program?

    Well, imho it's not an adaptation of Sacerdos in aeternum. Someone just put the English syllables under the notes of the Gregorian melody. It's sufficient therefore to attribute it like "Melody: Sacerdos in aeternum (Gregorian chant)"

    But perhaps there's a better adaptation out there? By Flowing Waters comes to mind (Introit for Corpus Christi), but that leaves out the "according to the order of Melchisedek".

    I don’t have a copy close by, but could it be out of the ‘green’ Roman Pontifical?
