    As the title says: I am looking for the Latin settings of the Responsorial Psalms for the Easter Vigil from the Graduale Simplex: I have By Flowing Waters, which has all of them in English, but the PDF of the Simplex on the Resources page only has the Psalms for after the III, V, VI, & VII Lessons. My parish uses only the first three readings and the Epistle; so I am looking, specifically for Psalm 104 for after the I Lesson, and Psalm 16 for after the II Lesson.

    On page 431 of GS there is a setting of the Missal verses after the second reading, I suppose you could treat it as in directum.

    Page 395 of GS has verses from Ps. 103/104, the antiphon is a different verse, but GS is assembled from what is available in the treasury, not what matches exactly.

    Dr. Ford will have thought deeply about this when writing BFW, I suggest asking him. I am no expert, expertise would be needed to edit out the alleluias at the end of that Magnificat antiphon. His website invites questions - http://www.pford.stjohnsem.edu/

  • How about these from Mr. Rice? I use them every year now.

  • I am going to send the Latin originals and the BFW versions. I can send TIFFs to those who could use them.

  • Here is the scheme from the original Graduale Simplex I translated, the only pages I did not include in By Flowing Waters.

  • Based on the scheme and the analysis I did of the melodies of all the responsorial antiphons, I created the missing vigil psalms according to the patterns discerned by the monks of Solesmes.
