Nuptial Mass propers

Andrew Motyka

Hey everybody,

Does anyone know where I can find the proper chants for the Rite of Marriage? It's likely right in the Graduale, but I'm having such trouble finding it. For some reason, I think the average parish is going to have a greater need to sing the Mass for marriage than for the blessing of an Abbot, but what do I know?

Arthur Connick

For the Extraordinary Form, the proper chants may be found at this link [see pp. 1288ff. in the Liber Usualis; pp. [121]ff. in the 1961 Graduale Romanum (no. 696)]. For the ordinary form, see the Mass "Pro Sponsis" on page 645 of the 1974 Graduale Romanum.

And for those in the OF who wish/need to use the Graduale Simplex, the simple propers start on page 379.

For the ordinary form, see the Mass "Pro Sponsis" on page 645 of the 1974 Graduale Romanum.

That's the one. Thanks for helping with my Latin illiteracy.

Hello!

I have the propers... my question is:

I'm singing at a wedding in the Extraordinary Form on the Feast of Saint Anne (July 26). Does this feast or the Missa Pro Sponsis take precedence?

I don't know much about the classes of feasts...

Thanks for your help!

Arthur Connick

On the Feast of St. Anne (July 26, 2nd Class) the Nuptial Mass is permitted. Note however that if July 26 is a Sunday, the Mass of the Sunday would be said.

Thank you very much!

I certainly appreciate it.

God bless!

Nuptial Mass Introit (with translation), Offertory, and Communion (with verses) can be found at this link along with practice videos, audio Mp3 recordings, etc.

How surprised do you think people would be to hear this version of the introit, alleluia, and communio? (see p. 247)

Would there be a recording of the Missa pro sponsis from Graduale Simplex? or Graduale Romanum?
