Missa de Angelis in Modern Notation?
If you have OneLicense, you can get it from there. It's in GIA's hymnals in modern, stemless notation.

USCCB elections
I think there are a good number of bishops in the USCCB at least sympathetic to Archbishop Sample's mentality/viewpoints that if he wanted to be nominated for something he could be. He seems to pick and choose his battles. Besides, I think most…

Music for Notre Dame PreGame Mass ...
Notre Dame...Saturday...perhaps a Mass/music of the BVM...the Alma Mater (Notre Dame, Our Mother) maybe at the end of Mass, but save the Victory March for the stadium.

Favorite Glorias?
The revision of John Lee's Congregational Mass is what I use in place of the one in the Roman Missal whenever I'm otherwise using the Missal chants. I also really like the Gloria from Br. O'Connor's Siena Chant Mass (although I t…

Faure Requiem, Novus Ordo
Give St. James Cathedral in Seattle a call to find out how they've done it. I know they do a choral Requiem Mass in the Ordinary Form every All Souls Day. I know recently they've done the Fauré, Duruflé, and Mozart Requiems in this context.

This weekend is a triple-threat
If it weren't for Corpus Christi falling today, I might consider a hymn to St. Joseph, patron saint of fathers, for the end of Mass. in much the same as many places do a Marian hymn at the end of Mother's Day (I did the Regina Caeli that d…

New LOTH monthly/Word on Fire
Does it utilize the Abbey Psalms and Canticles and the revised collects/prayers (at least those that were already re-translated as part of the current Roman Missal)? As much as I despise throwaway booklets for liturgical use, I agree that it could b…

Bishop designate in Phoenix.
Don't know about sacred music support, but he does carry a glowing endorsement from New Ways Ministry as "LGBT-positive," so while I know there are a lot more dots to be connected between that and music, it's not a good start.

What to look for (or intentionally put) in a job description
Here's another red flag to me: if the position is advertised as directly accountable to someone other than the pastor/rector/parish priest. If I were to have to report to some "Director of Parish Life" or a parish/business manager, it…

Kid-friendly liturgy
Children are enamored by "high church." I was blessed in the first parish I worked at in Ohio where the school children, when given an opportunity, would request things like Agnus Dei XVIII and hymns like All Creatures of Our God and King …

Replacing the Exsultet
It may be after-the-fact, but I think I'd still make a report to the chancery about it. Yesterday it was the Exsultet...tomorrow, the words of consecration?

Palm Sunday 2022
Chris: It's the proverbial bone thrown. I think if I didn't do it, I would be crucified myself. @NihilNominis: If I did it at a time other than the end, I probably would have included that verse. Since it was the closer and people tend to …

Appropriate type of bells for the Gloria
Every real bell you have - Sanctus bells, tower bells, handbells, bells at the entry of the church if you have them, organ zimbelstern/chimes...all of them

Theology of Amazing Grace
I maybe program it on Sundays a couple of times per year when the readings for the day are blindingly obvious (pardon the pun), like for Lent IV when the Gospel of the man born blind or that of the prodigal son are read. One of the deacons at my pa…

Short Fanfare for Gloria VIII
Something like Bach's Christ lag in Todesbanden from his Orgelbuchlein might fit the bill. It's in D Minor, but ends on the D Major chord so you could go right into the Gloria from it. If you play the Gloria in C Major, the Prelude from Pr…

Phone Apps to Pay Music Stipends?
I think it's wise to have such an option at your disposal, in addition to cash or checks. I've used Zelle and PayPal for direct payments. I actually think it's better than checks because funds are guaranteed to be there or else the ot…

To Credo or not to Credo
IIRC, the feast in question is a 2nd class feast, which calls for both the Gloria and Credo. Also, since it will still be Eastertime, Alleluia is added to the antiphons and Alleluia I should replace the Gradual. If I'm incorrect on either of t…

Use of David Haas's music/the new Gather edition
The IntoAccount report suggests that Haas used his music to abuse; he'd record and re-record all sorts of things to lure his victims into the studio, among other things. Other issues of the actual music aside, that's the big sticking point…

(OF) Litany on Easter Vigil, Or Not?
I think the distinction is whether or not water is to be blessed in a baptismal font that will someday be used for baptism or else water just destined for the sprinkling of the people after their renewal of baptismal promises. If the former, the Lit…

Metrical setting of "Vidi aquam"
Right off the bat, I would suggest fixing the alleluias at the end of each phrase so that the -lu of alleluia falls on the downbeat. I think you can do it within the existing tune, but scoot the syllables over, like this in mm. 3-4 for example: Al…
