Antiphons for the Book of Blessings, the Rites, and the LOTH

    Where can I find the chant settings in English of the Rites, the Book of Blessings, and the LOTH? I have the Mundelein Psalter, but I find its settings banal and uninspiring. I've heard that the Gelineau Gradual, vol. II might contain some of these antiphons and psalms. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

    I'll even take the Latin settings for the Rites and Book of Blessings. Thanks.

    For the LOTH you might try the recently released St.Meinard LOTH for Benedictine Oblates. Whereas it is not as complete as the Mundelein Psalter (no seasons or feast days, just the 4 week cycle, lauds, vespers and a single mid-day and compline setting) it does use the St. Meinard psalm tones which are a bit more interesting.

    Sorry, that should read St. Meinrad.

    This thread on the Catholic Answers forum mentions music for the Book of Blessings.
