1962 Confirmation Rite

    No doubt members of this forum have encountered the situation in which the bishop conferring Confirmations using the older former is favourably disposed but is perhaps rather low on his flying miles, such that a text straight out of the Pontifical is unhelpful.

    Has anyone notated the Confirmation Rite for the use of a bishop previously that they're willing to share? Perhaps in time we will need a 'Canticum Episcoporum Romanum' to complement 'Canticum Clericorum Romanum'!

    He’s asking for the sung parts of the preconciliar rite of confirmation to be written out with (chant or modern is unspecified) notation, but I suppose that the question is buried in there. Also, it’s also one of those things where the tone is either just a flex or it’s all sung recto tono, and I’m the biggest advocate for doing it yourself lest you need to redo it after getting feedback from the person using it.

    As an aside, the CCR book is a mess and should not be used. I’m sort of happy that it’s (permanently?) unavailable; I constantly hear the epistle clipped in places where I go « the tone should have been applied differently there ».

    It looks like the Canticum Clericorum Romanum is once again available from Biretta Books:
