To Glory or not to Glory on All Souls
Since we had a discrepancy in the Ordos (religious/diocesan) for the Credo I checked with our celebrant, who happens to be the archbishop's vicar. Yes there is the Credo. I didn't check about the Gloria - there was no question there, ri…

Organ Accompaniment for Office Antiphons
Many thanks for the pointers, igneus, tomjaw, CHGiffen, & Protasius. Everything is now scanned and uploaded, and suitably combined into just a few files. And for what it's worth, some of the antiphons can serve a double purpose as Mass Pr…

Organ Accompaniment for Office Antiphons
When this is complete, I would like to join together some of the files, for instance the pdf's for OT; saints' commons and propers; the seasonals. Is there freeware that would allow me to do that, does anyone know?

Omitting the Sequence
You're welcome. @CGZ - I don't know about the first pitch; you could be right. I was just following the chant sources I had available, from (1) the Dominican monastery in Summit NJ and (2) the Dominican House of Studies. Actually, we on…

The Ultimatum
You do I lift up before our Lord at this time. Your pastor as well. Special intercession at mass this morning: "For directors of music, their choirs, and their pastors. Let us pray to the Lord." A thought occurred to me; perhaps you h…

Thanks very much! Does accompaniment exist? What about for Lauds? God bless!

Psalm 90 for St. Joseph the Worker
Here is a setting we have. The psalm itself has quite a range and the translation is not the same, but what we often do is use the antiphon and set the lectionary text to a compatible Meinrad tone: in this case, Mode V in 3 flats.

Thank you for the suggestion, but my attempt to do so failed. [unnecessary technical information deleted] C'est la vie.

Role of the Cantor
Trying to match humans with readings is foolish I had to laugh over the typo ("hymns"). Yet the statement is uncannily relevant to anyone in charge of assigning lectors....

Help with vespers
I have several 3-ring binders of music with English antiphons for the Office. It is way too much for me to try copying or scanning it all, even if it weren't under copyright, but I've attached a sample below. Music - Abbey of Gethsemani …

SEP accompaniment book
I flipped through the Easter section briefly yesterday. I'm sure you're aware that there are currently three different kinds of formatting for "last time only" chords, cf. pp. 176, 186, 206, 252, 266.... (Ryan, I'll send y…

Or how about a draft copy as far as it's gone? I'm sure quite a few of us would be happy to help with proofreading.

Chant for the Genealogy of Jesus
Here are scans from the Proprium Ordinis Praedcatorum: Missale et Lectionarium (editio typica, 1985). I believe there are small variations in the Dominican melody as compared with the Roman version. Maybe someone else would know whether there is a…

Merry Christmas (2013)!
Here is the version of the Laetabundus we've used for years. The tune is by Nicholas Gatty (1874-1946). I think one of our Sisters must have done the translation, but I'm not sure. (My apologies for the separate graphic files; this comp…
