The tonus peregrinus is penitential because of its composition and usage by certain composers for falsobordone settings. But it’s regularly used with ps 113 on Sundays (Mondays for the Benedictines) …

We have everyone leave. I would prefer that they do the introduction as a married couple (one did the dip and first kiss in the aisle, which led to cheering, which.) and come back in for photos while…

@Chant_Supremacist ding ding. Hence my point about the wobbly nature that means that transcriptions for a study can be a beast.

But Patrick is right, it’s ideally not a diphthong: it’s…

I missed the Messiah singalong and early music workshop. I will go next November I think (on the parish dime, I hope lol). Anyway

Organization and Planning well ahead in advance is key…

Now, to Serviam’s point: the organ tuners did not finish when we had first asked them to finish (enough work, not just the perfection parts) and so they wanted to come back during the Triduum during …

I immediately roll my eyes at the people who get scrupulous about it during Lent when we rehearse music for Holy Saturday and beyond, and we practice appropriately. The removal is liturgical, and it …

This reminds me that people use diphthong to mean digraph when it refers to vowels that were diphthongs but became /e/ (or some other singular vowel sound) in later forms of Latin and in ecclesiastic…

On Sundays, there is a much larger crowd then during the week (where usually the organist can play anyway); however, this week, we did not have organ, and although we were the very last people to rec…

The Mass of Holy Thursday is a Thursday of Lent in that there is no tract only a gradual. The Tuesdays, Thursdays, and most Saturdays have no tracts.

But in any case the Gloria is also…

Well it’s interpreting Caecilia as C-a-e, but it’s a digraph ae/æ, oops.

Two problems, one for each: the Kyrie, Sanctus, and Agnus found in the Missa Primitiva are ferial in origin, and the latter two for Lent no less. The Gloria is for minor feasts. Sure, nothing prevent…

Well, why not do the Gregorian ordinary? Mass IV was found in the preconciliar excerpts for Holy Week (that is, the book for the whole week and only the week, but with everything in it), and it’s wha…

I am in a context where there’s no choice, and sometimes we’re going to have a delay, or the choristers can’t receive, but David is right. GIRM 86 is ridiculous on its face. The musicians, or some of…

The problem is that the breviary is a different beast. You have one set. You’re not going to replace it. You don’t need it in different sizes. Pastors had control over the purchase.

The Roman office is extraordinarily conservative and adopted hymns late.

Also I am also surprised that a hymn for a virgin martyr used the Incarnation doxology and the Urban version at…

Well

Now it’s completely collapsed and people don’t even read the offices.

Lent is in a month. It’s the same melody (for example we use DUGUET and SAINT THOMAS) during the weeks after Christmas until Lent and from the week after Trinity until Advent.

It does not apply to the usus antiquior. It was not superseded, not entirely at least, by the NO legislation.

But also I think that trying to reconcile things in favor of the second, o…

It was more of a thing in 2011 where some dioceses tried to have a Mass setting in common; Louisville tried to push one that I found very dignified, by a local DM as it happened, a setting also name…

I have had other things to do.

@SponsaChristi, you’re wrong. Full stop.

I don’t really care what the FSSP does elsewhere, but the rubric is for the NO, and it’s not har…

well, Bloomsbury seems to be the owner as the copyright was acquired by Continuum.
