    Programmed by a guest director at our parish tonight:

    Prelude: Barber Adagio for Strings (organ)
    Entrance: Lift high the cross
    Presentation of the oils: Rite for receiving the holy oils (Schiavone)
    Gloria: Gloria (Spanish setting by Salazar) - anyone familiar with this? Is it illicit?
    Psalm: El Caliz que Bendecimos (Palazon)
    Gospel acclamation: Respond & Acclaim

    Washing of feet: Jesus took a towel & So you must do (Haugen) - This was done during breaks within the Gospel (lots of discussion about this at the house following mass this evening). Perceived as theater - and the congregation told not to stand during the Gospel.

    Preparation of gifts: Ubi Caritas (Durufle)
    Mass of Creation
    Communion: Pan de Vida (Hurd) & The Supper of the Lord
    Transfer of the Eucharist: Pange Lingua (only two verses in English) - then into Jesus Remember Me - then Tantum Ergo at the altar of repose (in Latin)
  • This was our pastor's first multilingual major Mass. Vernaculars: English, Spanish, LaHu
    Ordinary: Iubilate Deo: Greek/Latin
    All went very well.

  • All propers in the Liber
    antiphons 1 and 8 (Ubi caritas) during the washing of the feet
    Ordinary- Victoria's Missa 'O quam gloriosum'

    Loved singing the verse on the gradual, all propers were stunning and a joy to sing.
    No major biffs by anyone, even me.

    To keep it real a certain FSSP priest decided to sing a different dismissal- one we weren't prepared for. We just came back with the Lenten response. Next year!

    Loved the gold vestments. Tons of incense winding with the chant.

    I'm still pinching myself that I have this job.
  • Though our music resources, traditions, architecture, and congregational make-up are hardly typical, some of you may be interested in what transpires at St. Paul Church, Cambridge, MA. The church, by the way, is always filled for the Triduum liturgies.

    Organ prelude: Pange lingua / Leo Sowerby

    Introit: Nos autem gloriari (sung by a select group of boys from the loft)

    Procession: The Royal Banners Forward Go (tune: The King’s Majesty; all ten verses are sung with short organ interludes. Considering the length of the church and the incensing of the altar, all are needed.)

    Psalm 116 / Marier (for those unfamiliar with Marier’s settings, the first half of each verse is sung a cappella by the boys, the second half is in 4-parts)

    Gospel Acclamation / Marier (verses sung a cappella, 4-parts)

    Washing of the Feet: Where Abideth Charity and Love / Marier
    Ubi Caritas / Duruflé
    (both pieces are transposed to E, thus allowing for a smooth transition)

    Preparation: How Lovely Is Your Dwelling Place / Brahms

    Holy, Holy, Holy / Marier, #23 for those who have access to our hymnal
    Memorial Acclamation / Marier #26D
    Great Amen / #27 (known by some as the “Dresden”)
    Our Father / Marier #30
    Agnus Dei XVII

    Communion: Ave verum / Saint-Saens

    Transfer of the Holy Eucharist: #228 Now My Tongue, the Mystery Telling (the local custom has the cantor intoning the first line of each verse, after verses 2 and 4, the choir repeats these verses in a 4-part setting by Palestrina)

    Entrance Hymn: At the Name of Jesus (sorry to say it's the modern one in "JourneySongs" with the neutered text)
    Kyrie: Mass XVI
    Gloria: Judy Hylton (again with the JourneySongs)
    Responsorial Psalm: R&A with SATB on the refrains. Transposed up a major second because it's down in the blottosphere for the basses and altos.
    Gospel Acclamation: Kraehenbuehl with mode VI verse, sung by treble voices. SATB on refrains a capella
    Washing of Feet: "Love One Another" by Bobby Fisher (no, not the chess player). Father moves through this at record speed, so it had to be short.
    Music during preparation of the gifts: "mandatum novum do vobis" by Taizé; two-part imitative on some refrains, plus cantor for verses.
    Sanctus, Mysterium Fidei: my own miserable unison setting from 1995
    Doxology and Amen: recto tono
    Agnus Dei: Mass XVII in English
    Communion: "Trilingual Ubi Caritas" by Cheryl Aranda. I massaged the piano part a good bit. I need to write some parts for the men's section for next year because the verses are kind of lame.
    Transfer: Pange Lingua (mode III). The people sang a good bit, but mostly i heard the choir.

    This is a collaboration with the pop ensemble because we believe in demonstrating unity for Holy Thursday and Confirmation especially. Next year (if there is a next year for me) there will be some different music, I hope.

    Holy, Holy: Mass of the Shepherds
    Memorial Acclamation/Amen: Heritage Mass
    Agnus Dei: Heritage Mass
    Communion: Ave Verum Corpus (Mozart); Lord, Who At Thy First Eucharist

    One thing that is odd at our parish is that for the washing of the feet, parishioners are called forward to have their feet washed by other parishioners at 4 or 5 different stations around the church. After they have their feet washed, they may (or may not) stay and wash the next person's feet. This goes on for a good ten minutes. Although I think the idea behind it is admirable, I think the traditional ritual is a more complete symbol and does not unnecessarily prolong that portion of the liturgy. For this reason I chose not to do a second piece of music to serve as a "background." If this practice continues in the future, I might add the English version of Mandatum novum from BFW.

    This is the one Mass that is attended by representatives of all of the different groups at the parish (to a greater or lesser extent): French / English, church / school, parish music program / guitar Mass. The church was pretty much filled, and people really sang on the Gloria, the Christ has died (from the Sacramentary), the Our Father (ed. Snow), and to some extent the Lamb of God XVII (Kelly), which is new this season. Every year I try to nudge each Sunday and solemnity closer to the ideal, and this is one where I feel we've pretty much gotten as close as we're going to get. The only improvements I would like to see is maybe singing the full antiphon "We should glory in the cross..." as the introit, a new Gloria once the revised English text is promulgated, and in general more singing of the dialogs and responses.


    Organ Prelude: Pange Lingua (Dupre)
    Entrance: R. May God have pity on us and bless us V. But it behooves us to glory... (Samuel Weber, OSB)
    Gloria: Heritage Mass (Alstott) [then the organ is turned OFF!]
    Responsorial Psalm: Ps. 116 (Columba Kelly, OSB) [second half of each verse sung from loft SATB]
    Gospel Acclamation: based on Kyrie/Ite from Mass XI and the T.P. (GIA edition)
    Washing of the Feet: Maneant in vobis (Rice) [antiphon and verses in English]
    Offertory: Ubi caritas (Durufle)
    Communion: Hoc corpus
    Processional hymn: Hail Our Savior's Glorious Body [tune: Pange lingua gloriosi]
    Motet: Tantum ergo (Durufle)

    We did the Durufle as well. It is one of my choir's favorites from long before my arrival. That said, there were also big pitch problems before my arrival! The magic fix is to do it a half-step up in E major (maybe even a whole to F!) It is better for almost everyone's tessitura.

    Decided to try Byzantine Ruthenian Great Vespers and Divine Liturgy of St. Basil this year. Great experience, since the entire thing is sung (except one prayer in preparation for Communion); however, I found that I really missed the procession to the altar of repose of the Roman Rite, and I wished that I had gone to our local Extraordinary Form parish or Cistercian Abbey (who does the Ordinary Form in a wonderfully reverent way with all the chanted propers).

    The local group of unemployed Catholic musicians went to St. Francis de Sales in Mableton,GA, the home for the EF in the Archdiocese of Atlanta. As I do not report to my new position until May, it seemed a good time to go. The liturgy was stunning in its execution and impressive to say the least.

    Propers from the Graduale. A small schola of men and then a larger group of mixed voices for the motets.
    Missa VIII for the ordinary.
    Christus Factus est by Bruckner for the gradual.
    Ave Verum-Byrd Second communion after the proper.
    Pange Lingua during the procession of the Blessed Sacrament.
    Antiphons 1-3 during the footwasing.

    A truly beautiful, prayerful and marvelous experience. And a lovely community to pray with. Lots of young families and a mix of ethnicities. The stereotype of the EF parishes does not wash at St. Francis.
    Kudos to our EF parish in Atlanta.

    On to Kentucky in May.

  • If we all could regard these lists from the perspective of where we were ten years ago, we should, at once, leap for joy and kneel in humility at the progress that is being made real; a new solar system is evolving, so to speak.
    Earlier this week, in a phone conversation with one of our colleagues, I mentioned that I was so looking forward to Triduum/Easter. Later that day the repertoire choices were challenged by one of our vicars, embroiling us both in contention, very sorrowful (how quickly the worm turns.) But God still works HIS purpose out within us. And the gift of the liturgy on this foundational night was self-evidently rendered in truth.
    As I type, the proclamation of the Passion at St. Peter's Basilica has just concluded. The schola sounded wonderful.
    St. Peters....schola....wonderful.....He makes all things new.

  • Heath, it was an honor to enfold the Mandatum with your piece. Were we the only two parishes....?
    I had a good friend tenor who showed up unnannounced, sang with us. After he inquired about "Wisdom," replied it was just written a couple of weeks ago by an internet colleague. Look on his face? Priceless.
    Thanked by 1Heath
