Seeking an early Anglican church version of the Requiem Mass Gregorian Chant in English.
-
Surely it must have existed.
Early chant, the Gregorian melodies, but with English text.Thanked by 1M. Jackson Osborn -
See St Dunstan's Kyrial -
in which are all the Gregorian ordinaries, creeds, and the requiem, and Merbecke -
as adapted into Old Church English by
Canon Charles Winfred Douglas (Canon of Fond du Lac)
Originally published by H.W. Gray, it now can be had from Amazon for about $20 or so.
Thanked by 1CHGiffen -
As MJO suggests, page 42 of the St Dunstan Kyrial (1933) on the CMAA resources page, or p.228* of The Plainchant Gradual (1946).
-
Another thing to keep an eye on is the Beta version of Sarum English Performing Gradual, at present covering only the Temporale.
