Line-up for 30 April - Novus Ordo Third Sunday of Easter, Year A

Fr. Blake is away this week on a well-deserved vacation, and will not return in time for the Traditional Latin Mass that is usually offered as the 5pm Sunday Mass at the Basilica. Unable to find a priest both able and available to fill in with a TLM, he arranged for Fr. John O'Brien from St. Anthony of Padua Church to offer a "high" Novus Ordo Mass at that time. From the choir's perspective, however, little will be different. Here is the general music line-up:

  • Propers: Novus Ordo 3rd Sunday of Easter [PDF]
  • Mass Parts: Mass VIII – De Angelis
  • Hymn after Offertory: Concordi Laetitia [PDF Youtube]
  • Hymn after Communion: At the Lamb's High Feast We Sing -- Worship hymnal #512
  • Recessional: Antiphona ad Sancte Michael [PDF]
  • [Subject to change] 
The main apparent difference is, of course, that we will sing an English hymn after Communion. Hidden within the propers sheet is, however, that instead of the Latin Gradual/Alleluia we will chant the Responsorial Psalm and Alleluia provided in the Pray Together missallette, pp. 102 and 104 respectively.

Good practice last night. Thank you all!
