Re: Paying an organist
That seems an odd situation. Surely the payer was entitles to call the tune of this particular piper. In theory, yes, but only if the payer has a clear idea what he wants the piper to play. In most churches I know, the music is decided by the people playing it and I suspect that may be the case in ...

Re: thread
Do I remember rightly holding hands during the Peace at SS? That seemed a much better solution. It's the way we've done it in my church for many years and a tradition that our new PP has agreed to continue. A few people seem uncomfortable with it but it's a powerful symbol of a community seeking to...

Surely full participation in the Mass is better served by receiving Holy Communion at the end of the procession than by abstaining. Paul Inwood's advice is to do just that, on the grounds that musicians are to some extent the hosts at the meal and should let others receive first. I've even known so...

Re: thread
Peter, are you my Peter form S S? 664 is Hon Hopwood Mass which is OK but paraphrases and after the first million years gets a bit depressing. The Kyrei (can't remember how to spell it ) is "Father of all have mercy on us" x three and more, then Saviour of all etc, then Spirit of all etc....

His favourite hymn is I the Lord of Sea and Sky and he would up it up at the end of every Mass if he could, that and Give me Joy in my Heart for the Entrance. Bless him. They are both in Laudate - 865 and 722 respectively. 865 is covered by Calamus and 722 (at least the words and melody) are "...

A photocopiable Liturgical Planner. ..... I got so stuck this morning because the clapping Gloria is in CFE and I felt guilty about printing out the words...... Decani publish a Liturgy Planner, which you can get for a reduced rate if you subscribe to Calamus (see previous posting). The Clapping Gl...

Re: thread
Meanwhile I don't know week on week what to do..... neither hymn book is enough for the congregation, and sheets are not legal. Duplicated sheets get round the problem of which hymn-book to choose and they can be perfectly legal, provided that either (a) the material you are copying is in the publi...

If you have the licences and are producing service sheets, I'd stick with it. I agree wholeheartedly. This is how we work at my church and it enables us to pick hymns from a wide variety of sources (several hymnbooks as well as home-grown hymns or items picked up from Composers' Group meetings) to ...

I have never heard the Benedictus left until after the elevation, but I have read about it. My Father can't remember it either, so it hasn't happened a lot in the last fifty years. I've done it this way with the Reading Haydn Choir, which operated in the 1970s primarily for the purpose of singing c...
