    I misplaced my hard copy of this, went searching online for it without success, and thought about asking the forum if anyone had it. Then I found it on an old hard drive. Thought I would share since it seems no longer to be online anywhere. I can't remember where I found it in the first place.

    These sparse accompaniments for the Office psalm tones are wonderful. The late Jean Claire had a profound understanding of Gregorian modality. He considered organ accompaniment a "necessary evil" in a monastery and evidently felt that existing formulae for accompany the psalms were inadequate, leading him to create his own.

    This link seems to no longer work. Does anybody happen to have this?
