By the way, this morning, one of the new priests celebrated his Mass of Thanksgiving in Latin (OF), with fellow forum member Aristotle Esguerra chanting the gregorian propers for the votive Mass of the Holy Spirit. The Mass was mostly sung as well, including dialogs in latin, 2/3 readings and Fr. Zuhlsdorf was preaching. Fantastic.

Is there a reason that the antiphons from the rite are being ignored?

The Veni Creator Spiritus is now reserved for episcopal ordinations.

Here are the ones in the rite itself.

Is there a reason that the antiphons from the rite are being ignored?

The Question of the Century.

The Graduale Romanum lists options on p. 644:

Introit:
(I) Dominus fortitudo plebis suae
(II) Dominus secus mare
(III) Protector noster aspice
(IV) Sacerdotes Dei, benedicite
(V) Scio cui credidi

Gradual:
(I) Bonum est confidere
(II) Iuravit Dominus
(III) Protector noster aspice

Alleluia:
(I) Confitemini... et invocate
(II) Ego sum pastor bonus
(III) Ego vos elegi de mundo
(IV) Iuravit Dominus
(V) Tu es sacerdos

Offertory:
Sicut in holocausto arietum

Communion:
(I) Ego vos elegi de mundo
(II) Hoc corpus quod pro vobis tradetur
(III) Introibo ad altare Dei
(IV) Lavabo inter innocentes
(V) Qui mihi ministrat, me sequatur
(VI) Simon Ioannis, diligis me
And in Paschaltide:
(VII) Data est mihi
(VIII) Ego sum pastor bonus

The Question of the Century.

Is there a reason that the antiphons from the every Sunday's Masses are being ignored?

So, the Offertory is the same for ordinations to the Diaconate, and Presbyterate?

Here are the Latin Introits and Communions for Ordinations from the Missale Romanum 2002.

Ah ha! I thought so! :) that's *exactly* what we did.

It was when I posted it!

Sic transit . . . utilitas interretialis, I guess.

Dr. De Vos,

It was discussed on a previous thread, but let me offer again my compliments on the outstanding music at the Episcopal Ordination. As a self-diagnosed "liturgy nerd," I watch a lot of these Masses when they are posted on CatholicTV, and this was one of the best I've seen. One of the few (possibly the only one) I've seen use all of the Gregorian propers. Kudos on putting together a great program, and with only 22 days notice!

Please keep the Diocese of Birmingham in mind tomorrow: we ordain one of our own and two friars for the "EWTN Franciscans". Will post repertoire here later, but you may also watch on EWTN live at 12PM ET.

That is the current pontifical. Mine was preordered from the moment it was announced, and when it finally came, the smell if ink was nauseating! I hate that's it's so expensive, and no study edition is available. Not everything in it has been fully updated yet, so it is a bit transitional.

Folks, sorry to miss out on all the fun in SLC, but here is the menu for ordinations in Birmingham last Saturday. We pretty shamelessly picked the easier of the chants available (now I see we copied Rudy de Vos's unintentionally!) and recycled a lot of music from this past choral season (the choir and I are "newlyweds", so to speak, as of January). It is now on the EWTN youtube channel, too, although before throwing stones, I hope you know that they mic'ed the choir from around 6 feet away... St. Paul is a fantastic room, though you wouldn't know it from the recording. Also, this choir sang more or less no chant (and none from 4 line notation) before January, so I was particularly proud that they've made the progress they have in a short time. We don't have scholas set up yet, therefore the choir is singing the introit and communio weekly during choir season. This liturgy gave me a new admiration for duration in choirs: everyone was pretty worn out by the beginning of communion, which you hear in the Palestrina. Sadly (for the diocese, but perhaps happily for us) we don't have ordinations for a couple years now, so we have plenty of practice time...
