    Does anybody have the Easter Sequence in modern notation or neumes (but modern is better). I lost mine and I'm panicked. Thanks.

    I have it from a WLP missalette, but that's all.

    Actually, now that I look. I also have one with accompaniment. It is for an English, OF mass. Private message me and provide an e-mail address, and I will scan it for you.

    Hey Rob--

    I think in English, the word "gloriously" was intended to be sung in three syllables, "glo-rious-ly" - but that is helpful to have.

    We have long ago penciled in the slur for "glor'-ous-ly". The official books seem to have little sympathy for singers: we also change the opening ".. to the Paschal victim offer your grateful praises." The Missal Exultet last night had numerous examples of over-hyphenization, and this morning I again had to explain that, while Californians say "iz-real", the 3 syllable version in Guimont calls for British "iz ray ell" rather than the "iss rye uhl" that we occasionally hear from midwestern lectors.
