Hello everyone,

I’m also trying to locate another very scarce early twentieth-century chant-accompaniment series:

Louis Jacquemin — Accompagnements nouveaux et très faciles du Chant des Offices

specifically the 2e partie: Antiphonaire, containing the actual musical accompaniments for Vespers, Lauds, antiphons, saints’ offices, and related Office chants.

One complication is that some libraries and digitized collections catalog Amédée Gastoué’s explanatory notices under very similar titles. I am not looking for those prose notices alone; I am looking for Jacquemin’s actual accompaniment music.

I have managed to acquire a few individual fascicles already, including:

Fascicule 2
Fascicule 3
a Propre des Saints — Février fascicle

But I am still looking for the rest of the series, especially:

Fascicule 4 — “Des Laudes de Noël à l’Octave de la St-Jean”

That fascicle is of particular interest to me because it should contain the Christmas Lauds material.

More broadly, I would be very interested in any of the missing Antiphonaire fascicles, whether as individual booklets, bound volumes, scans, photographs, or private-library copies.

If anyone owns any of these Jacquemin fascicles, has seen them in an old choir loft or organ library, or knows of a digitized or secondhand source, I would be extremely grateful for any lead.

Even simple page-by-page photographs would be perfectly useful for my private research.

Thank you very much!

@chonak @tomjaw — I hope you don’t mind the tag; I thought this might be in your orbit of historical chant and accompaniment sources.
