Resources for All Saints Day
  • I've worked up a few resources for All Saint's Day.

    A Responsorial Psalm and Alleluia - Alleluia is from the Anglican Use Gradual, text is ICEL and pointed. (PDF)

    Artwork for two hymns for liturgy leaflets:

    By All your Saints Still Striving (GIF) AND;

    Holy God We Praise Thy Name (PDF)

    I hope someone finds these useful. Due to a Litany of sick calls from the college schola, I am handing over a certain amount of singing to the congregation and will have a small group lead a chant mass instead of polyphonic music


  • Just to let you know what I used for this mass:

    Introit: Processional Hymn "By All Your Saints Still Striving"
    Kyrie: Gregorian Mass XII
    Gloria: Gregorian Mass VIII
    Responsorial Psalm: ICEL Text, music arranged/adapted *!
    Alleluia: Anglican Use Gradual with ICEL Text for acclamation.
    Offertory: Chant from Anglican Use Gradual then "Sub Tuum" Motet in 3 voices
    Communion: Simple English Propers
    Recessional Hymn "Holy God We Praise Thy Name"
    Postlude: Voluntary in D, John Stanley

    *! - I often find that when I am writing the Psalm responses that I in fact use a setting which I have heard somewhere ages before. I have accidentally done this several times, so if I find that I have somehow infringed someone else's work I can only beg forgiveness.
