If you need the psalms written out: I’m on my phone so I hope this works.

People who have strong ideas about Things - regardless of placement on the spectrum - are quite capable of complaining. It's a human condition thing, not a one-end-of-the-spectrum thing.

NOH, Solesmes/Fontgombault, the Vatican/Italian etc. are all different in terms of the musical structure even if things like keys are common (does anyone do Kyrie de Angelis in a key other than D?) a…

The groom and groomsmen should have a room to be in, and brides and brides should too. But: the first shouldn’t be the sacristy. I have seen this, and it is disruptive. (It also…yes: more eyes on the…

Google ecosystem since it’s device independent and free*.

If people insist on Proton and don’t get a way to access stuff it’s on them.

Hmm.

So as to private Masses: they had to be said during the day. Otherwise it was an abuse.

One chose the Mass that corresponded to the hour if not binating or trinatin…

I had a draft comment about what Steven mentioned.

The lack of a copyright notice goes against the wishes of the Apostolic See. I am almost certain that it is illegal. But that they ha…

There are a few problems.

One, it is in reference to the lectionary. It has no bearing on the graduale propers, which obviously can’t be sung by the congregation not in full anyway. Bu…

Thanked by 1tomjaw
Which is obviously to be ignored.

I think the problem is that it’s a deviation. Tone VII is what it is; you have to return to the reciting tone from the mediant, but if you aren’t expecting it and have to figure it out on the fly…

It wasn’t offensive it was just confusing.

Thanked by 1tomjaw
I HATE that. Very, very few people do it in Latin, so when English chanters use it, I'm thrown off.

I would treat it as a dactyl like monasteryliturgist does. Only if there's…

Liam although I didn't grow up in New England, I have some naturally (aunt is not the same as ant for me), others are maybe a wee bit more affected, and so it's funny singing with guys from…

I think you’re misunderstanding. I am aware that she didn’t approve the setting. They should have refused categorically. This person does not care and will do whatever. So at this point, the conferen…

The day of our call, she told me she had just that morning sent back the same psalm setting for the third time, because of all the errata that the composer refused to fix. Stupid people like that (so…

I don’t disagree.

Honestly this would be a good thing for the Pillar.

The /i/ vowel is the correct first example. The difference is the different vowels of bee and bit (as in kit etc. too), the vowel of which would be /ɪ/…

It cannot be a diphthong or jus…

Thanked by 1probe
That’s correct.

They’re Latin words and behave like them. Those are the correct pronunciations for those words, BUT, and this is why I prefer transcriptions (that many musicians know f…

Well

It’s a solemn feast. So II or III. But there are few* hard and fast rules. I do like the Dumont masses (particularly the Mass of the 6e ton).

The kyriale in the Lib…

Thank you!!

The Marian antiphon at a priest’s funeral is an invention of the modern rite which I abhor in part because priests are not that special and because as has been noted here in the past even the lib cle…

I understand that Creative Commons is a thing. But try explaining that to the civil lawyers of the Holy See. (CC-0 is actually the equivalent of putting it in the public domain, so that would be the …

I think that looks fine. I don’t have the Toni communes in front of me to compare the ad lib examples of Hebrew and monosyllabic words. P.S. there are a few places where the mediant could go either w…

Thanked by 1BGP
It’s in the Toni communes which gives a bunch of examples of such words, and yeah, I don’t like it.

Thanked by 1BGP
Kai, it needs a lot. Like, making sure that the pre-1955 office is on there first.

My qualm with doing pre-1910, whether that be 1568 or 1910 or in in between, is that there are very f…

Thanked by 1tomjaw
You can adjust the tone per the decree on monosyllables and Hebrew words, although in Latin, I follow the Solesmes way which is to never adjust, so the monastic tone is maybe better for English.

Thanked by 1BGP
well that’s just it: nobody has a real market in Canada for competition. Anyone dissatisfied with the CBW III cannot afford a competitor, and normie parishes overwhelmingly use the CBW III, right?

Thanked by 1 Abbysmum
I’m not saying that the USCCB should get into the business of this (the Church Pension Group owns Church Publishing Inc.; it’s the business side of TEC). But they’re at least straightforward.

Thank you so much.

@AugustBerchelmann, that’s a great line up. It’s approaching my ideal (though I’ll say: we let the organist play during communion as we distribute, but I don’t wish to encourage it, and I think that …

All Saints:

Gregorian propers:
Missa Aeterna Christi munera (minus the Credo); Agnus X plus a reworked Agnus I instead of the 5vv Agnus II.

I don’t think that it matters. They should be more generous in licensing, but they would be completely within their rights, and someone would lose badly, if the conference decided to pursue collectio…

I do. It’s the same as Urbs Jerusalem beata (which should still be the hymn for Vespers in the NO unless the Liber Hymnarius did something really bad)

Thanked by 2tomjaw CHGiffen
I mostly agree with how Chant Supremacist would do things. That’s pretty sound, though I would put a hymn (polyphonic, harmonized, just chant) at communion in order to do it justice. I don’t have a r…

Thanked by 1Chant_Supremacist
Yeah.

And if not (we have some open space, but when we have our full mixed choir, they don’t fit) don’t be afraid to put each section in rows, i.e. stand with plenty of time to start a…

It’s a lot of work if you don’t use the Vatican rhythm.
