Posted on April 2, 2015 by maddg

Basically the same as 2014, which is fine by me.

I’m still interested in what other parishes have selected if people wish to share.

    Mostly very similar to last year, with a few twitches depending on what the day’s musician knew.

    Except – Good Friday was lead by the brand-new youth choir, trained by the young, enthusiastic and traditionalist new curate. They did an amazing job, learning four new-to-them hymns in only three practises. However there was zero congregational participation, because people didn’t know any of the hymns (I thought they would know “When I Survey”, but nope). We’ll need to work on a more balanced repertoire in future things they do.

    Holy Thursday:
    Mass parts mostly Missal chants
    Gathering: I am the Bread of Life (Toolan)
    Psalm: read
    Washing of the feet: I Heard the Voice of Jesus Calling (Bell / Iona)
    Offertory: In Bread we Bring You Lord was planned, but left out because things moved too quickly
    Communion: Sweet Sacrament Divine
    Transference to the altar of repose: Jesus Remember Me (Taize)

    Good Friday
    Prayer response
    – O Lord hear us we pray, O Lord give us your love (unknown)
    Veneration of the Cross:
    – When I Survey the Wondrous Cross
    – Lord Jesus Think on Me
    Communion:
    – My Song is Love Unknown – the LOVE UNKOWN tune
    – At the Cross her Station Keeping

    Easter Vigil
    Mass parts – a mixture
    Exultet: Missal chant, by the traditionalist young curate who did it well
    Gloria: Sacred Heart (Timothy R Smith)
    Psalms – ahh, … can’t remember, but we sung responses!
    Gospel Acclamation: Alleluia Alleuia Give Thanks (Fishel – 3 verses)
    Litany of the Saints – not sure whose version this was, musician found it.
    Offertory: Rejoice in the Lord Always
    Communion: Seek Ye First (Lafferty)
    Recessional: Sing a New Song (Schutte) – this didn’t go well, not as well know as expected

    Easter Sunday:
    Mass parts mostly Missal chants, Glendalough Holy Holy
    Entrance: Seek Ye First (Lafferty)
    Gloria – Missa de Angelis (very traditional – and the only one our musician for the day knows)
    Psalm: Alleluia Alleluia Give thanks to the Risen Lord – Fishel
    Offertory: Be Still and Know
    Communion: Some instrumental Carolyn tunes, then Close to you (Glynn) – chosen because it’s so well know, rather than for Easter as such
    Recessional:Because He Lives – Gaither (another choice for popularity rather than quality!)
