Here is nice letter I was forwarded.

Fathers and friends,

Have you seen this hymnal?

http://www.ccwatershed.org/vatican/samples/

The music you hear being sung is not only recently composed by a “living” composer, Kevin Allen, proving that beautiful sacred music is still possible, but thanks to technology, and an incredible talent, it is sung by one person, Matthew J. Curtis!

It even has the Sung Propers in English, including the Offertory Antiphon! Yes, there is an Offetory Antiphon in the Ordinary Form of the Roman Rite (but a strange rubric indicates that it is only done if it is “sung”.)

HOMEPAGE WITH DESCRIPTION

As an example of its incredible potential, this hymnal is going to be used at an Extraordinary Form Mass on August 15. Not only does it contain the two hymns we will use as a Processional and Recessional, The God Whom Earth and Sea and Sky and Hail, Holy Queen, but it containes the entire Missa Cum Jubilo, Credo III and Salve Regina. The congregation will have all of this with them to sing the Mass in the EF! Talk about “actuoso participatio” to quote St. Pius X!

And no more THROW AWAY paper missalettes destroying trees and the environment!

Of course, it is second to none for the OF, for which it was designed.
