Assuming you're talking OF: I have only seen the Propers spoken by two priests:

1) The chaplain at TAC New England at the daily English OF 'Low Mass' at the chapel;
2) My pastor-emeritus at Mass in his private chapel.

Both speak them Vox Clara: the Entrance Chant, before the sign of the cross; the Communion Chant after receiving the Chalice.

The biggest problem is a lack of accessible settings.

I am currently preparing the POPE FRANCIS CATHOLIC BOOK OF LITURGY, the first resource of its kind, which will include all propers, even for feast days, engraved for ease of use, but in a beautiful, yet compact way. Each day is written out completely! No more flipping from one day to another, or seeing long blocks of text stacked on top of each other in an incomprehensible fashion.

See the attached example, for the Epiphany.

Accompaniment edition to follow in a couple years.

This is an ideal publication for parishes which tried the Lalemant Propers and/or the Recto Tono Hymnal and found them too difficult.

Communio recited from the pew by one, two, or all, at daily Mass: this I have seen in at least two places.

There is no offertory ant. in the Missal nor a fortiori in the Missallette, so no reciting of that.

The proper gradual is inevitably replaced by the responsorial psalm from the Lectionary, and we have all heard that read without note, I'm sure. Sometimes the verses are read but the response is sung. Besides, there is no translation of the gradual.

I've heard a priest say the introit from the Missal a couple of times, I think always from the chair after going there without ceremony. If course if there's an "opening song" the proper introit is not envisioned by the rubrics.

It should be noted that the 'propers' that the priest speaks, mumbles, or whispers, are not The Propers. When The Propers, found in Graduale Romanum or in translation elsewhere, are not sung by a choir or cantor at a given mass, then there are no Propers at that particular mass. The 'antiphons' which appear in the missal are not The Propers.

What I've seen in numerous parishes (usually at weekday Masses without music) is similar to what Andrew Malton describes.

• Entrance Antiphon recited by those in the congregation possessing a missal, sometimes also by the priest, while he proceeds to the sanctuary and venerates the altar
• Communion Antiphon recited by congregation after the priest drinks from the chalice - often with a bell rung as a handy reminder

At some places I know, the custom is to recite the Communion Antiphon as described on Sundays too, even when there is other music to follow. That's not necessarily what's in the GIRM.

I’ve already called my lawyer.

Whaa? Really? I thought the whole point was that they were.

At our daily masses, the missal communion Propers are spoken by the congregation. They are sung at Sunday masses. I have heard the entrance Proper spoken at some daily masses, depending on the priest.

MJO may be talking about this discrepancy:

CatherineS - God created a world which is in flux, change is of its essence. We hope that liturgical changes will be improvements, we can never expect to arrive at perfection.
In this case, the texts given in the Missal, in Latin, are intended to lead to vernacular propers with musical settings‡. That this is a process taking many decades is hardly a surprise. The striving is surely not of itself displeasing to God.
‡ Bugnini, the Reform ... p891 :-

The entrance and communion antiphons of the Missal were intended to be recited, not sung, and to inspire the creation of suitable songs in the vernacular.

Hawkins,

That Bugnini proposes such nonsense gives us an insight into why some folk mistrust the Ordo Missae he helped create. He also proposes that the reason for the abandonment of Latin is that (and I kid you not) the addressee needs to understand what is being said to him. He thinks Mass is addressed to the lay faithful.

@Ryand......the link explains how our parish's Liturgy Staff can print "Propers" in the weekly pamphlet which do NOT correspond to those found on my "Square Note" app, even though the Propers are neither spoken NOR sung for any Mass at that parish.

Sheesh.

The Missal propers were written in Latin, to set them to music would be to detract from the treasury of Gregorian chant, and therefor they were not to be sung. But in the vernacular there were no settings of the Propers, and no reason to restrict ourselves to texts with ancient musical settings, so new texts could be added to match the vastly increased variety of biblical readings. And there was emphasis on having a liturgy in which some singing would be the norm.

Nah, progressives wear neon mantillas, carry glow-in-the-dark rosaries, and posses attitude.

I use propers by Rice and Fr. Weber. Both are good and perfectly acceptable.

But do you regard the texts in the Ordinariates Missal as Propers?

Around here (Boston area), it's not uncommon to hear the entrance antiphon recited from the missal (and the pew booklet), at weekday Masses.

I think the important thing is when ANY propers are used. Many places have thrown them all out in any form, old or new.

Priest alone reciting is last choice...and not something I've witnessed. Normally, it's the faithful reciting it at the bidding of the celebrant - daily Mass-goers have habits about this.

GIRM:

47. When the people are gathered, and as the priest enters with the Deacon and ministers, the entrance chant begins. its purpose is to open the celebration, foster the unity of those who have been gathered, introduce their thoughts to the mystery of the liturgical time or festivity, and accompany the procession of the priest and ministers.

48. This chant is sung alternately by the choir and the people or similarly by a cantor and the people, or entirely by the people, or by the choir alone. in the Dioceses of the united States of America there are four options for the entrance chant: (1) the antiphon from the Missal or the antiphon with its psalm from the Graduale Romanum as set to music there or in another setting; (2) the antiphon and psalm of the Graduale Simplex for the liturgical time; (3) a chant from another collection of psalms and antiphons, approved by the conference of bishops or the Diocesan bishop, including psalms arranged in responsorial or metrical forms; (4) another liturgical chant that is suited to the sacred action, the day, or the time of year, similarly approved by the conference of bishops or the Diocesan bishop.

If there is no singing at the entrance, the antiphon given in the Missal is recited either by the faithful, or by some of them, or by a reader; otherwise, it is recited by the priest himself, who may even adapt it as an introductory explanation (cf. no. 31).

87. In the Dioceses of the united States of America, there are four options for singing at communion: (1) the antiphon from the Missal or the antiphon with its psalm from the Graduale Romanum, as set to music there or in another musical setting; (2) the antiphon with psalm from the Graduale Simplex of the liturgical time; (3) a chant from another collection of psalms and antiphons, approved by the conference of bishops or the Diocesan bishop, including psalms arranged in responsorial or metrical forms; (4) some other suitable liturgical chant (cf. no. 86) approved by the conference of bishops or the Diocesan bishop. this is sung either by the choir alone or by the choir or a cantor with the people.

However, if there is no singing, the antiphon given in the Missal may be recited either by the faithful, or by some of them, or by a reader; otherwise, it is recited by the priest himself after he has received communion and before he distributes communion to the faithful.

Throughout all of my years of attending daily Mass as a layperson, a seminarian, and as a priest, the missal propers ('antiphons') are almost always recited at daily Masses or at a Sunday Mass in which there is no music. I have witnessed three ways of them being recited:

      1. The priest alone reads the text from the missal or a missalette (before the Sign of the Cross for the Entrance Antiphon). (most common).

      2. The priest and congregation read the text together (priest from the missal or missalette and the congregation from a missalette or hand-missal).

      3. The text is said in an antiphonal style with the priest reciting the first half and the congregation reciting the second half (done in the same way for the Communion Antiphon). For example:

            Priest: O Lord, it is you who are my portion and cup;
            Congregation: you yourself who secure my portion.

One of the major issues as a priest celebrating daily Masses is using the correct antiphon (the proper proper). As a priest I often will celebrate a Votive Mass of the Sacred Heart on Friday or a Votive Mass of the Blessed Virgin Mary on Saturday. While I have all the correct antiphons in the Missal, the congregation only has what is printed in their missalette or hand-missal (usually the Ordinary Time antiphon). It's not a huge problem, but the people who attend daily Mass (at least in my part of the USA) like the Mass to match their missalette or Magnificat publication.
