Tenebrae alternatim settings
-
Heyo,
Like most of you, I am preparing for this year's Tenebrae celebrations. Mine is OF. I was wondering if anyone had any English settings in alternatim of the psalmody for Tenebrae, and barring that, had simpler formulas in alternatim. Thanks! -
I have some you can use. I started creating a set for OF use, but never completed them. The typesetting is a disaster (I was experimenting). Here are a couple of examples:
-
Those are excellent. Where did you find the settings themselves?

maestrodicapella,
Thanks for posting these. I have to create a Holy Sat Tenebrae for my place this year. I'd love to find out how much you have set, as this would be excellent for us. -
I'll post what I have done so far. You are most welcome to them, I never got around to using them. I'd be delighted to know they were getting an airing. Feel free to tweak them - they haven't been road tested yet!
1st Noturne of Holy Sat:
(first two psalms above) -
2nd Nocturne (never completed), but the Responsories are very easy to find - there are loads available free online (I have used Croce's O vos omnes and Gallus' (Handl) Ecce quomodo in the past):
-
3rd Nocturne is woefully incomplete:
-
ditto Lauds:
-
other useful bits:

Where did you find those fauxbourdon settings?
EDIT: Found them, linked right here on our own forums (fora?):

Some of them, yes. Others are from a variety of sources (some I've not set yet). Hope some of this is useful.
