a lot of them chose to use “saints” hymns for All Souls’ Day


Have you seen this as a multiyear trend, or is it an artifact of all this falling on the weekend this year, leading to a de facto suppression of All Saints? My free music was pretty much all All Souls even though the Mass was 21st after Pentecost. And how often do most Novus parishes sing All Souls, given that it's not a holy day of obligation?
