Mass Propers for Summer Ordinary Time by Gary Penkala Choir - Sheet Music

SKU: C5.3206

Recent Vatican documents have served as reminders for liturgical musicians to look back at rubrics (particularly the GIRM 2011) to see just what we should be doing. This leads to the profound realization that at many places during the Mass, we have come far afield of what the Church expects of us. Wise musicians are now examining the Church's intent for the processional moments in the Mass: Entrance, Offertory, Communion. They are discovering a fresh, new treasury of antiphons, ready-made, and linked to each celebration of the liturgical year. These booklets compile the Propers for each season/category (Entrance, Offertory and Communion antiphons) and include appropriate psalm verses that can be used to extend the music. The Entrance and Communion antiphons come from The Roman Missal (2010); the scriptural citations for the Offertory antiphons (which have never been translated into English) come from the Graduale Romanum, and are realized with text from the New American Bible, the approved translation for liturgy in the United States. Psalm verses are also from the NAB. The psalms tone used (one for for each of the seasons) are taken from CNP's Universal Music for Morning Prayer or Universal Music for Evening Prayer, and set the English Proper texts to an easily-grasped melody. The refrain and verse format allows a great deal of flexibilty; these can be sung by cantor or choir alone, or by cantor and/or choir with congregation. These booklets offer an effective way for congregations to actually chant the Propers of the Mass, even with only the texts that are given them in Missalettes and hymnals. May these settings, simple in form and style, lead to a rediscovery of the beauty of the Propers of the Roman Rite, and promote their use in "proper" liturgies. Contents: 1.
