    I started with Page 21 https://imslp.simssa.ca/files/imglnks/usimg/e/e2/IMSLP80324-PMLP162944-Symphonia_et_Ordo_virtutum.pdf
    I have never tried to translate notation like this before so I thought I'd have a go.
    I'm starting with this as part of my chant video series because this particular work features heavily in Electronic Dance Music (believe it or not!) I thought this would be a neat opportunity to state that chant is inspired and still inspiring the hearts of the faithful and even giving people a baptism of faith.

    and I have made the following:

    Hi All,

    Looking for a copy of O Euchari - I have found one, can read the notation fine but the words I struggle with in the handwritten format so I have been cheating with a modern notation.

    There also seems to be episemas in performances that aren't on the score I have so I'm a bit confused. Anybody knowledgeable in this particular chant? I figured this was a good place to ask.

    Jes

    If you have the whole chant made please share with me because it would save me hours of working out the code on gregorio! Haha.

    For anyone following the deep link above fol. 476 is the scrolling target.

    Latin (p. 2) and English (p. 2) texts are available in a previewable Google Book.

    The recordings are beautiful. I wish we had more devotion to St. Eucharius of Trier here, so we would have an excuse to sing it at Mass. (Although I am eyeing an Advent Feria on December 9, the day after his feast day...)

    Why the epiphonus at the first in? I am also curious about the rhythmic markings. Are they based on a particular recording? Compare the manuscript notation at EUchari and mansiSTI. I think your edition might have it backwards. I also don't understand the episema at EuchaRI and ambulaSTI. Otherwise, it looks correct. This is stylistic, but I would use virga instead of punctum at the beginning of the climacus at ambulasti and use ! before the quilismata, and perhaps W instead of w so they're also followed by virgae.
