Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou amongst women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death. Amen. Opening Versicle A large sign of the cross is slowly made on oneself.

  • The Latin Mass Society
    Ordo 2010 Compiled by Gordon Dimon Principal Master of Ceremonies assisted by William Tomlinson for the Latin Mass Society © The Latin Mass Society The Latin Mass Society 11–13 Macklin Street, London WC2B 5NH Tel: 020 7404 7284 Fax: 020 7831 5585 Email: [email protected] www.latin-mass-society.org INTRODUCTION +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Omnia autem honeste et secundum ordinem fiant. 1 Cor. 14, 40. This liturgical calendar, together with these introductory notes, has been compiled in accordance with the Motu Proprio Rubricarum Instructum issued by Pope B John XXIII on 25th July 1960, the Roman Breviary of 1961 and the Roman Missal of 1962. For the universal calendar that to be found at the beginning of the Roman Breviary and Missal has been used. For the diocesan calendars no such straightforward procedure is possible. The decree of the Sacred Congregation of Rites of 26th July 1960 at paragraph (6) required all diocesan calendars to conform with the new rubrics and be approved by that Congregation. The diocesan calendars in use on 1st January 1961 (the date set for the new rubrics to come into force) were substantially those previously in use but with varying adjustments and presumably as yet to re-approved. Indeed those calendars in use immediately prior to that date were by no means identical to those previously approved by the Congregation, since there had been various changes to the rubrics made by Pope Pius XII. Hence it is not a simple matter to ascertain in complete and exact detail the classifications and dates of all diocesan feasts as they were, or should have been, observed at 1st January 1961.

  • Augustine and the Art of Ruling in the Carolingian Imperial Period
    Augustine and the Art of Ruling in the Carolingian Imperial Period This volume is an investigation of how Augustine was received in the Carolingian period, and the elements of his thought which had an impact on Carolingian ideas of ‘state’, rulership and ethics. It focuses on Alcuin of York and Hincmar of Rheims, authors and political advisers to Charlemagne and to Charles the Bald, respectively. It examines how they used Augustinian political thought and ethics, as manifested in the De civitate Dei, to give more weight to their advice. A comparative approach sheds light on the differences between Charlemagne’s reign and that of his grandson. It scrutinizes Alcuin’s and Hincmar’s discussions of empire, rulership and the moral conduct of political agents during which both drew on the De civitate Dei, although each came away with a different understanding. By means of a philological–historical approach, the book offers a deeper reading and treats the Latin texts as political discourses defined by content and language. Sophia Moesch is currently an SNSF-funded postdoctoral fellow at the University of Oxford, working on a project entitled ‘Developing Principles of Good Govern- ance: Latin and Greek Political Advice during the Carolingian and Macedonian Reforms’. She completed her PhD in History at King’s College London.

  • ST MARY's CATHEDRAL Solemn Mass
    ST MARY’S CATHEDRAL Solemn Mass Twenty first Sunday of the Year 23 August 2020 10.30am WELCOME to St Mary’s Cathedral which stands in the centre of Sydney as a Christian statement of grace and beauty. Generations of artists have bequeathed to it their magnificent gifts in stone and glass, designing a unique space of solace and prayer within this vibrant city. This Cathedral represents the spiritual origins of the Catholic Church in Australia. It is one of Sydney’s most treasured historic buildings and one of the finest examples of English-style gothic churches in the world. William Wilkinson Wardell, the 19th century architect, dreamed of a gothic structure shaped from the local yellow-block sandstone on which this city is built. The building was finally completed 100 years after the architect’s death. The Cathedral is dedicated to Mary, Immaculate Mother of God, Help of Christians. THE CATHEDRAL CHOIR St Mary’s Cathedral Choir is the oldest musical institution in Australia. In 1818 a group of choristers was formed to sing Vespers before the Blessed Sacrament in the Dempsey household, the centre of Catholic worship in the penal colony. After the establishment of St Mary’s Cathedral in 1833 the successors of these choristers formed the permanent Cathedral Choir. In faithfulness to the Benedictine English tradition from which the Cathedral’s founders came, the Choir is formed of men and boys, preserving the historical character of Catholic liturgical and musical heritage. St Mary’s is the only Catholic Cathedral in Australia to have an on-site Choir School where the twenty-four boy choristers are educated.

  • Low Requiem Mass
    REQUIEM LOW MASS FOR TWO SERVERS The Requiem Mass is very ancient in its origin, being the predecessor of the current Roman Rite (i.e., the so- called “Tridentine Rite”) of Mass before the majority of the gallicanizations1 of the Mass were introduced. And so, many ancient features, in the form of omissions from the normal customs of Low Mass, are observed2. A. Interwoven into the beautiful and spiritually consoling Requiem Rite is the liturgical principle, that all blessings are reserved for the deceased soul(s) for whose repose the Mass is being celebrated. This principle is put into action through the omission of these blessings: 1. Holy water is not taken before processing into the Sanctuary. 2. The sign of the Cross is not made at the beginning of the Introit3. 3. C does not kiss the praeconium4 of the Gospel after reading it5. 4. During the Offertory, the water is not blessed before being mixed with the wine in the chalice6. 5. The Last Blessing is not given. B. All solita oscula that the servers usually perform are omitted, namely: . When giving and receiving the biretta. When presenting and receiving the cruets at the Offertory. C. Also absent from the Requiem Mass are all Gloria Patris, namely during the Introit and the Lavabo. D. The Preparatory Prayers are said in an abbreviated form: . The entire of Psalm 42 (Judica me) is omitted; consequently the prayers begin with the sign of the Cross and then “Adjutorium nostrum…” is immediately said. After this, the remainder of the Preparatory Prayers are said as usual.

  • In Latin and English
    THE HOLY MASS OF THE SECOND VATICAN COUNCIL in Latin and English for the Solemn Celebration of the Ordinary Form of the Roman Rite at St. John the Beloved Catholic Church in McLean, Virginia “Particular law remaining in force, the use of the Latin language is to be preserved in the Latin rites.” (Vatican II, Sacrosanctum Concilium, n. 36) “Steps should be taken so that the faithful may also be able to say or to sing together in Latin those parts of the Ordinary of the Mass which pertain to them.” (Vatican II, Sacrosanctum Concilium, n. 50) “Pastors of souls should take care that besides the vernacular ‘the faith- ful may also be able to say or sing together in Latin those parts of the Ordinary of the Mass which pertain to them.”’ (Sacred Congregation of Rites, Musicam sacram (1967), n. 47) “The Roman Church has special obligations towards Latin, the splen- did language of ancient Rome, and she must manifest them whenever the occasion presents itself.” (John Paul II, Dominicae cenae (1980), n. 10) “Mass is celebrated either in Latin or in another language, provided that liturgical texts are used which have been approved according to the norm of law. Except in the case of celebrations of the Mass that are scheduled by the ecclesiastical authorities to take place in the language of the people, Priests are always and everywhere permitted to celebrate Mass in Latin.” (Congregation for Divine Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments, Redemptionis Sacramentum (2004), n. 112) “I ask that future priests, from their time in the seminary, receive the preparation needed to understand and to celebrate Mass in Latin, and also to use Latin texts and execute Gregorian chant; nor should we for- get that the faithful can be taught to recite the more common prayers in Latin, and also to sing parts of the liturgy to Gregorian chant.” (Bene- dict XVI, Sacramentum caritatis (2007), n.

This study seeks to view Aquitanian musical culture through several intersecting sacred and secular concerns and to relate the various musical traditions to the region's broader societal forces.

  • Canto Fratto Repertoire of Benedicamus Domino in the Manuscript Cantionales from the Convent of Bernardine Nuns in Kraków
    Kwartalnik Młodych Muzykologów UJ No. 36 (1/2018), pp. 33–52 DOI 10.4467/23537094KMMUJ.18.015.9018 www.ejournals.eu/kmmuj Andrzej Edward Godek Jagiellonian University in Kraków Canto fratto Repertoire of Benedicamus Domino in the Manuscript Cantionales from the Convent of Bernardine Nuns in Kraków Abstract The Archive of St Joseph’s Convent in Kraków contains a collection of musical manuscripts, which have not been studied before. Among books of liturgical use, such as graduals and antiphonaries, there are also small cantionales, full of canto fratto repertoire. The majority of these sources originate from the Convent of Bernardine Nuns in Kraków; however, there are also at least two manuscripts from the Convent in Wilno. The aim of this paper is to present canto fratto repertoire of Benedicamus Domino found in the 18th and 19th century liturgical manuscripts from the Convent of Bernardine Nuns in Kraków. The author indicates sources of studied melodies based on the wide range of liturgical manuscripts from the 18th and 19th centuries—especially from convents of Bernardine Nuns in Poland, as well as from the Convent of Benedictine Friars in Staniątki—and compares it to the dispersal of canto fratto settings of ordinarium missae. Finally, the paper presents complete index of Benedicamus Domino melodies in the annex. Keywords Canto fratto, Benedicamus Domino, Bernardines, liturgical manuscripts 33 Kwartalnik Młodych Muzykologów UJ, No. 36 (1/2018) 18th-century monody in the area of Poland is a broad issue, but extraor- dinarily not represented in the contemporary musicological studies. Exceptional attempts to examine canto fratto repertoire are strictly con- nected with the incomplete knowledge of sources (especially in terms of Eastern Borderlands).1 The term “canto fratto” refers to monody composed and performed since the end of the 17th century to the 19th century, which has different features than the style that is typical for plainchant.
