    I'm a new music director and was just told that we will be doing the readings for St Lawrence on Sunday (parish feast day). This is short notice and I'm trying to locate organ accompaniment and simple chant based styles for the psalm, gospel Acclamation, and communion antiphon. I thought I had bookmarked a website (maybe CCWATERSHED) that had a page with free resources for many Sundays and feasts, but I can't find that link. Any help would be appreciated

    Fr. Weber has it here.

    Recognizing that the Introit from the 1974 Graduale, Confessio et pulchritudo a/k/a "Praise and Beauty are before Him", is totally licit and is more traditional in the Roman Rite, being the same as the 1962 Missal Introit, nonetheless I'd like to point out (on this the only thread in forum history dedicated to Propers for the feast) another text option for the feast in the Novus Ordo, the 1970 Missal Introit, Hic est Beatus Laurentius, a/k/a "This is the Blessed Lawrence". Fr. Weber has set English chants for This is the Blessed Lawrence here (p. 196)

    The latter Introit may have been sourced from an identical Ambrosian Rite responsory, the chant of which I can't find anywhere.
