Good Friday HELP!

    Hey all,

    I'm wondering if anyone out there could help someone like me. I'm looking for appropriate music for Good Friday that fits
    1.) 'We Adore Your Cross, O Lord'
    2.) The Reproaches
    3.) 'Faithful Cross'

    I love Latin and long to see it used, but I'm not sure this is the year for that. (We have done nothing else in Latin since I started here in August and I don't want to pull out Latin only in penitential seasons - that's the only reason why we're not doing a Latin Ordinary (the Jubliate Deo or 'Funeral' Mass) as has been the custom here.

    We will be having an all men's schola sing - a sort of hodge-podge group of guys coming to my parish since their Good Friday services start later than mine.

    Thanks!

    The Burgess Anglican Good Friday booklet has settings of all the above.

    I'm using Esguerra's Reproaches: http://www.cantemusdomino.net/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/GS-PT-AN-Good-Friday-Reproaches-IV.pdf

    I like the simplicity of it, and the fact that I can invite the congregation to sing the antiphon.
