 French publisher Editions Sainte-Madeleine has just published two interesting new items, one of which had been expected for years:
And since the Holly week is now ahead of us, mention should be made of the 2009 reedition of the Holly week book containing all the offices with texts in latin and french, as well as gregorian tunes. Very helpfull to those attending Easter celebrations, be they once-in-a-year penants or regular choir members.

 The handing out of communion often takes a while. Strangely enough, the gregorian tune sung on that occasion is the shortest one of the whole mass. Actually, it is not a responsorial chant like the gradual, which is a response to a lecture, but a communion antiphony, which was formerly chanted in alternance with a psalm.

 The inauguration of such an important and prestigious instrument is always an historical event. This recording is a good image of the three manifestations that punctuated the inauguration of the instrument, staging the various actors of liturgical music (choir, organ and choir organ), and offering a great diversity of repertoire.
The diversity of registers and harmonic flamboyance of this music will touch even the most indifferent of listeners. Such an instrument makes you understand why organ is such a faithful support of liturgical music.

Meanwhile, watching these tutorials may help you improve your knowledge of gregorian chant.
