    Could you please share what music you are offering (hymns and antiphons in English) for the Feast of the Assumption? Thanks!

    The standard hymns, "Hail, Holy Queen," "Immaculate Mary," and such. There was a good communion antiphon that someone posted on this forum a day or two ago. A soloist is singing the Arcadelt Ave Maria. I will play the Flor Peeters "Choral: Ave Maria" from "Four Improvisations on Gregorian Melodies" during Offertory, or perhaps as a bit of filler after communion.

    My parish is Assumption Grotto in Detroit so this is our BIG feast day. Lots of people usually come to the evening Mass in the Grotto.

    I apologize for my ignorance, but how is this done: cantor (we don't have a choir yet), congregation or combination? I see "O Holy Mary" in the Music Issue but where are you getting the "Ave Verum" verses?

    Thanks!

    Gesualdo: Maria mater gratiae
    Escribano: Paradisi porta
    Ortiz: Dignare me laudare te
    Handl: Missa super Sancta Maria
