Re: Triduum Planning
At the last singers rehearsal on Sunday, I spotted thet we would have been singing "Like the (old?) dear yearns for running streams...." at the Vigil. :? That, like one of SC's recent posts on this thread, is worthy of the "Wickedness of Face Cream" thread https://www.ssg.org.uk...

Re: Olives or Palms?
Sorry for replying so late to Fr Gareth's initial enquiry, but this post from the past may be relevant viewtopic.php?p=27550#p27550.

Re: Recorded music in church, etc
After 65 years, this legislation is surely due for review. Surely no-one uses phonographs these days, and though I do have a gramophone and various open-reel tape recorders at home, I wouldn't use them in the liturgy! On the other hand, some churches (not mine) do project words of hymns onto a scre...

Re: New Translation of the Lectionary incoming
Thanks, SC - very comprehensive and helpful reply. As Alan said when opening this thread, let's hope we can see a "final" draft of the texts in time to get some settings ready in time for their introduction - or, failing that, a long enough grace period to write new ones while still using ...

Re: New Translation of the Lectionary incoming
Thanks, Alan, for posting this. It is not just Responsorial Psalms that are affected; presumably there will be new Gospel acclamations as well, which composers will also need to set. Given that the referenced document says … This is a new publication of the Lectionary using different scripture trans...

Salazar Gloria
What's the current approval status of George Salazar'a "Glory, glory, glory to God" with verses, which I've just been asked to include as a "Gloria" in tomorrow night's order of service? I'd assumed that as a paraphrase it was no longer acceptable, but when I queried it with the ...

Re: Liturgical Tourism
Spending a week in France just before Easter, I'd been expecting to ask for a lift to the above-mentioned church at Pont-Écrepin to see how they did Palm Sunday at their regular 11am Mass there. However, their priest also celebrates Masses at other churches in the area on a less regular basis, and I...

Re: Easter Vigil - when did you start and finish?
... I was not a happy bunny to be playing the sunrise mass at 6am but I was delighted to be singing Joncas’ ‘As morning breaks’ as a post communion song just as the sun graced our worship. Did you take the opportunity to include Bernadette Farrell's "This is the night of new beginnings" (...

Re: Copyright
As far as Continuum's copyright claim is concerned, I believe I am right in saying that they only ever held copyright (as Burns & Oates, later Search Press, taken over by Continuum, which itself was subsequently taken over by Bloomsbury) in Brennan's text, not in Rigby's music. My copy of Lauda...

Re: Funerals and autocrats
Or even the Londonderry air. A few years ago a violinist played this tune at the funeral of her mother, who was Irish. A friend, also with Irish ancestry, remarked that the name Alan29 used above was not acceptable south of the border, to which the priest, who had trained in France and therefore sp...

Re: Hymn for deceased parishioners
Sadly, having downloaded the files I couldn't open them - or rather, when I did they just appeared as gibberish!

Re: Liturgical Tourism
Today I paid a return visit to Pont-Écrepin in Normandy, where in the summer I'd experienced a relatively quiet Mass. This time they were back to what I gather is their normal routine, with children (about 25 of them today) and parents on one side of the sanctuary and choir (about ten) on the other ...

Re: Music for Papal Mass in Phoenix Park, Dublin
It seems odd to pick a Sanctus and Great Amen from the same Mass setting (even though they look thematically and tonally unrelated to me) and then interpose a Memorial Acclamation adapted to fit a totally unrelated hymn tune. Composers submitting settings of the Sanctus to the Panel for approval are...
