1st Sunday of Advent Introibo /21 Daoudal /15 Baron Johner
		LU317 MV260	GR1 AR213
Trope. Sanctissimus namque Gregorius	8		Trope GB4654 PDF GV1	E/F♯ This is called a trope and used to be sung just before the Introit Ad te levavi, in honour of St Gregory the Great (source, forum CMAA, PDF). The melody appears with a picture of St Gregory on page 1 of the official Vatican Graduale in 1908. - Not too difficult but be careful at the notes on the word Gregorius. - In the end, slow down and sing ita dicendo as an introduction to the Introit. In other words: start the Introit straight away as you finish the trope. This trope is the same mode as the Introit and starts on the same GD.

Intr. Ad te levavi Ps. 24, 1-3. 4. Ps. 24, 5-6.	8	LU318 MV260	GR1 GB132 VPC25	E/F♯ Mode 8 is the perfect mode, lifting your soul to eternity, not necessarily the easiest mode but this piece is memorable and well remembered. - The jump GC is characteristic of mode 8, happens here on the word animam. - Lovely porrectus GBAB on the word universi. - At the end of the Gloria Patri the Amen is the elaborate version A-GAD-FFG, final G so to bring back where the antiphon starts.
Grad. Universi Ps. 24, 3 et 4.	1	LU320 MV263	GR2 GB1169	B/C Notice the change of clef between the antiphon (F clef) and the verse (C clef). It starts on bottom C then down to bottom A, but finally goes up to top E in the verse, beyond top C. So you might want to start the antiphon lower than usual, like B flat.
All. Ostende nobis Ps. 84, 8.	8	LU320 MV263	GR2 GB1115	D/E♭ This is a classic Alleluia which melody comes back a few times during the liturgical year: Christmas Midnight, Epiphany 3rd, Ascension. - Another lovely proper in mode 8. The various phrases end on G. - Notice the B flat and B natural at the end of nobis.
Offert. Ad te Domine Ps. 24, 1-3.	2	LU321 MV265	GR3 GB962	C♯/D This Offertory has the same mode 2 with F clef and starts with the same notes A/C/D/F as the Offertory De profundis of 23rd Sunday after Pentecost... which was the week before. - Notice the non consecutive 3 notes CEF over the quilisma on irideant (usually quilisma have consecutive notes). Also there is a tendancy to lengthen the torculus on "ant" of irideant: avoid it and go straight to the next word me, dotted punctum. - Interesting to have the three notes CEG of major C chord on inimici, you do not expect that on mode 2 with F clef. - Detach the word etenim from universi so to hear the "m" and the bottom A clearly. - Basse voices: enjoy and express the bottom notes AGA on exspectant.
Offert. Ad te Domine (verses) Ps. 24, 1-3. Ps. 24, 5.	2		OF5 GB11393 SOV1	C♯/D OF... are taken from the Solesmes book Offertoriale 1935. They have additional verses but no rhythmic signs.
Comm. Dominus dabit Ps. 84, 13. Ps. 84, 2-5, 7-8, 10-12, 14.	1	LU322 MV266	GR3 GB1036 VPC25 MV1999	F/F♯

Intr. Populus Sion Is. 30, 30. Ps. 79, 2. Ps. 79, 2-3.	7	LU327 MV273	GR4 GB356 VPC26	D/E♭ - Notice the dot at the end of ecce: there is a lengthening here before going to Dominus. - There is also a lenthening with a distropha on auditam, here too it is tempting to ignore it. - The whole ad salvandas gentes has up and down notes, be careful not to rush them.
Grad. Ex Sion Ps. 49, 2-3 et 5.	5	LU328 MV275	GR4 GB1268	D/E♭ - On the word veniet: smoothen the transition between "ve" and "ni-et". - The long Congregate has a double climacus at the end: BbAG-AGF followed by a dotted A, difficult to pitch. For that I memorize the same A three notes before on the climacus AGF. - The end of ordinaverunt has a distropha on B natural, it is tempting to sing B flat instead. - Notice the word sacrificia has a B natural then three B flat.
All. Laetatus sum Ps. 121, 1.	1	LU329 MV276	GR5 GB292	D/E♭ - On the word ibimus: watch ahead the "bi" after "i" to link them flawlessly, then bring "mus" on the same melody as Alleluia.

Grad. Qui sedes Domine Ps. 79, 2, 3 et 2.	7	LU335 MV283	GR7 GB1007	E/F - Good breath to launch the long incipit Qui sedes, Domine. - Careful at the descending melody on excita potentiam tuam: first from A to F (major 3rd), second from F to D (minor 3rd), third from A to D (5th). - The first part of the verse Qui regis is similar to In Deo from the Grad. Liberasti nos from 23rd Sunday after Pentecost. - regis has a pattern CCA-BAG-AGF-G where the B is natural, not B flat. Similar pattern is found again on deducis. - On this long melism regis breathe at the quarter bar(s) or sneak a quick breath before Israel. - Enjoy the final intervals 3rd down and 4th up on Joseph: AFD-GC.
All. Excita Domine	4	LU336 MV284	GR8 GB855	F/F♯ Melody similar to Alleluia from Epiphany 2nd, Ascension, Pentecost.
Offert. Benedixisti Domine Ps. 84, 2.	4	LU337 MV285	GR8 GB113	E/F - The incipit Benedixisti has this strange flavour but lovely double note F on "xi", a semitone higher than the starting note E (mode 4 final), so be prepared. - The word avertisti has a B flat but be careful: it comes back to B natural after that on the word remisisti.

4th Sunday of Advent Introibo Baron Johner
		LU353 MV294	GR21
Intr. Rorate... Ps. Caeli enarrant Is. 45, 8. Ps. 18, 2. Ps. 18, 3-7.	1	LU353 MV294	GR21 GB79 VPC32	C/C♯ Quite straightforward. Classic mode 1 starting on a 5th. - Although I find it difficult to sing the high notes on "per" from the word desuper, it does not come out right... - Notice Mass & Vespers has a mistake, missing the starting note C.
Grad. Prope est Dominus Ps. 144, 18 et 21.	5	LU354 MV295	GR21 GB284	D/E♭ On this one too, take a good breath for the long incipit. - I make a longer pause at the full bar after eum ending on F just to "visualise" AC followed by GF on the word omnibus. - And in veritate start a 3rd higher E but comes back to C. - Notice the C key moves from the 1st to 2nd line at the verse, which starts a 5th higher from the end of the antiphon.
All. Veni Domine	3	LU354 MV296	GR22 GB224	D/E♭ Melody similar to Alleluia from Epiphany Octave, Pentecost 20th. Mode 3 is technical and not obvious for an Alleluia full of melisms. - First difficulty at the beginning: a 4th DG followed by a major 3rd GB, the incipit itself finishes on B giving this particular flavour. - Lovely repeated pattern GABCACABG in the middle of the Alleluia. - At the end of the word noli notice the B flat followed by a minor 3rd down to G. - Then the "da" of tardare goes CA and it is tempting to sing CG instead, like "tar". - The word facinora has this repeated pattern AAGGAFG three times. The only thing is to remember to jump to C in the middle with this beautiful 4th GC. - Also after these three patterns it goes down a minor 3rd GE and this one is not always easy to pitch. What I do: memorize the previous F and go down a semitone. - In the end the word tuae is acrobatic: 1) it goes down gently FEC but suddenly goes up again a 5th on CG, 2) once again gentle FGA and suddenly another 5th down on DA, 3) finally finishing very low with a 4th down on DA. My advice: sing prudently, watch your steps. Especially here the ending is not the classic Alleluia proper where the verse usually finishes on a similar melody as the word Alleluia itself. - Final difficulty is to get back to the Alleluia, from D to EEF. But it starts with a distropha on E giving time to regroup.
Offert. Ave Maria... et benedictus Luc. 1, 28 et 42.	8	LU355 MV297	GR23 GB843	D/E♭ A bit technical but lovely. To be sung with a lot of gentleness. - The incipit is a bit long so prepare yourself. - The word Dominus is dynamic on a double pattern, breath at the quarter bar to link "minus" after the second pattern.
Offert. Ave Maria... et benedictus (verses) Luc. 1, 28 et 42. Luc. 1, 34 et 35.	8		OF13 GB14211 SOV2	D/E♭ Ave Maria, gratia plena, Dominus tecum : Benedicta tu in mulieribus, et benedictus fructus ventris tui. 1. Quomodo in me fiet hoc, quae virum non cognosco? Spiritus Domini superveniet in te et virtus Altissimi obumbrabit tibi. 2. Ideoque, quod nascetur ex te Sanctum, vocabitur Filius Dei.
Offert. Ave Maria... et benedictus (verses, rhythmic signs) Luc. 1, 28 et 42. Luc. 1, 34 et 35.	8		GB18437	D/E♭ If you start on D it goes up to top E. If you start on E♭ it goes up to top F.
Comm. Ecce virgo Is. 7, 14. Ps. 18, 2-7.	1	LU356 MV298	GR23 GB1144 VPC32 MV2000	D/E♭ - You we will need to tune the dynamic on the word Emmanuel, there is a bunch of lengthening in there. - For the psalm verse: the difficulty in psalm tone 1 is to remember to sing the 3-notes torculus on the second part of the psalm verse.

Sunday within the Octave of Christmas Introibo Daoudal /20 Baron Johner
		LU433 MV352	GR44
Intr. Dum medium Sap. 18, 14-15. Ps. 92, 1. Ps. 92, 1-2.	8	LU433 MV352	GR44 GB564 VPC38	B♭ - Watch out the various B which can be flat or natural in this proper. - You might want to make a pause at the quarter bar just after de caelis ending on GBbGF. The next phrase a regalibus GACBB has a different flavour from the previous: from B flat to B natural. The pause helps to "regroup" before attacking a different set of notes. - The Gloria Patri ends with GADFFG: memorize the D so to start again the antiphon with the word Dum on CD. Or go down a 5th from G.
Grad. Speciosus forma Ps. 44, 3 et 2.	3	LU434 MV354	GR45 GB1308	E Difficult piece, not many Graduale are in mode 3. - A few patterns are repeated. Learn this proper by decomposing the various phrases into patterns. It helps. - Notice the 3 occurrences of a lovely pattern GB-DCC-ABA on hominum, bonum and Regi. - Pay attention to the 2 occurrences of the episemed note F after E on the word est and the end of calamus. Memorize this particular jump of a semitone. - Be careful at the 2 patterns GA-FE-GA on the words tuis and scribentis: the second GA is difficult to pitch unless you quickly memorize the first one. Also at the end of these words there is a GF-GE where the F is not easy to pitch: in doubt sing it silently and get to the final double dotted notes.
All. Dominus regnavit, decorem Ps. 92, 1.	2	LU405 MV355	GR31 GB714	E Same as Christmas Mass at Dawn (LU, GR).
Offert. Deus enim Ps. 92, 1-2.	8	LU406 MV356	GR32 GB979	A Same as Christmas Mass at Dawn (LU, GR).
Offert. Deus enim (verses) Ps. 92, 1-3, 6-7.	8		OF16 GB17680	A Same as Christmas Mass at Dawn.
Comm. Tolle puerum Matth. 2, 20. Ps. 92.	7	LU436 MV357	GR46 GB1282 VPC38 MV2003	D - No pause at the first quarter bar, the word "et" imposes to join puerum and matrem ejus: you do not want to separate the child from his mother. `:-)` And the ending of ejus is lovely. - Little difficulty on the word terram when going down DB, a minor 3rd... - Be very careful at the word enim after defuncti: it goes up gently GACBC-DEDE then falls down a major 3rd to C for a final CDED. And this C is a bit difficult to pitch. But after the C comes another DE which you have sung twice just before, so still fresh in the memory. Therefore in doubt sing the C silently and focus on DE. - Finally on the word animam it goes DCBA-CBAB and it is tempting to repeat the same pattern instead: DCBA-DCBA.

2-5 Jan - Most Holy Name of Jesus (Sunday between Circumcision and Epiphany or 2nd Jan if no Sunday) Introibo /22 Daoudal /21 Baron Johner
		LU445 MV365	GR50
Intr. In nomine Jesu... Ps. Domine Phil. 2, 10-11. Ps. 8, 2. Ps. 8, 2.	3	LU446 MV366	GR50 GB1033 VPC42	C♯/D Not particular easy for an introit, it is a mode 3. - The word terrestrium lingers a lot around B before landing on A. - Careful at the word confiteatur: coming from the high notes of et omnis lingua it is not easy to move swiftly through the starting AGA (no lengthening there) to the next CBDCC. - At the end don't forget the major 3rd FA on the word Patris.
Grad. Salvos fac nos Ps. 105, 47. Isai. 63, 16.	3	LU447 MV367	GR51 GB670	D/E♭ OK, it is a long and tricky gradual in mode 3... - First difficulty on the word congrega: it tooks me some practice to master the strange torculus ACA. You would expect the syllable "con" to end up on C, it is not natural to come back to A, but it is actually the "grega" which does end up on C. - Be careful at the word confiteamur: two small drops a semitone CB after the big jump a 4th on the previous ut. - On sancto tuo the note A is sung many times, some of these A have an episema meaning emphasis and lengthening; keep the note high in mind before exploring the lower notes of tuo. - The word gloria is a bit tricky: remember "ria" starts on the same A as ends "glo". Also the "a" is just a second higher than the previous note, and tua starts on F, same as the ending of "ri". Seems obvious but... - The "a" of tua starts a minor 3rd lower than "tu", it shouldn't be too difficult. At least there is an episema to regroup. - Good breath before pater noster. Careful at the drop a 4th down DA. And don't forget the "r" at the end of the melism. - The word saeculo starts on the same note as the previous "a"... There is an episema to regroup again. - Two difficulties on nomen: 1) there are 9 notes on "no"... 2) "men" has a drop a 4th down CG. - The final tuum mimics tua, same melism addressing The Lord our God.
All. Laudem Domini Ps. 144, 21.	1	LU448 MV368	GR52 GB1	D/E♭ Melody similar to All. Domine Deus meus in te from 2nd Sunday after Pentecost. - When the singers start after the cantors (after the star and the symbol ij.), there is a AG-AGF where it is tempting to add an F and sing it like AGF-AGF. Same thing happens on ejus at the end. - Try to join et benedicat with omnis caro, it will sound better. - Avoid saying the "s" of ejus too early like at the first dot, there is a long melism and the "s" is said at the end.

Tract. Domine Deus Ps. 79, 20 Cant 2, 14. Sept.	8	LU--- MV---	GR53 GB1167	Sung at a Votive Mass after Septuagesima instead of the previous Alleluia.
All. Exaltabo te Ps. 144, 1. Pasch.	5	LU--- MV---	GR54 GB954	Sung at a Votive Mass in Paschal Time, following the previous Alleluia.

Offert. Confitebor tibi... Deus Ps. 85, 12 et 5.	1	LU448 MV369	GR54 GB980	B/C♯ Melody similar to Offert. Jubilate Deo from 2nd Sunday after Epiphany. - The first occurrence of Domine Deus can be tricky unless you remember it is built on a succession of G/A before jumping to C: AF-GAG-AG AGCCC... - Careful at the word corde: after the jump to C there is a gentle descending CBA starting with a semitone and yes it is the first occurrence of B natural. - Go easy and light on the high notes of the words et glorificabo nomen tuum; here too it will sound better if you do not pause at the quarter bar and join the two parts of the phrase. - Be careful at the drop of a 4th at the end of aeternum. You might remember the G from the previous episemed torculus. - Lovely B flat on the next occurrence of Domine. - Now before you start suavis et mitis es, visualise the phrase, it is built on a double pattern A-GCBA; once again comes the B natural, rarely heard in this piece in mode 1, so the ear has to be prepared for it. - For the next phrase et multae misericordiae I suggest to make a slight and imperceptible pause at the bottom D between the two words, like if you had to bounce back and fly up and away. - The words omnibus invocantibus are a bit technical going up and down from top C to bottom C without the help of lengthened notes, so go easy on this part, no need to rush. You will relax at the word te. Personnally I made a mark on my book: "mni" has the same note A as "o" on the word omnibus, it is tempting to go AC-G instead of AC-A. This note A is coming back a few times before you reach the lowest part of the staff. - Finally on Alleluia: the episemed F before the quarter bar is to be memorized, it helps when coming back to it after the quarter bar.
Comm. Omnes gentes Ps. 85, 9-10. Ps. 85, 1, 11-13, 15-16.	8	LU449 MV370	GR55 GB8 VPC42 MV2003	D/E♭ Melody similar to Comm. Domine memorabor from 16th Sunday after Pentecost. - The melody on the syllable "mi" of the word Domine drops a semitone then a major 3rd, not a tone then a minor 3rd. - Separate the words quoniam and magnus so the two "m" are heard and do not sound as one. - Careful at the word mirabilia: it starts a minor 3rd higher than the previous note D, it is tempting to start on G instead of F. - Watch out the drop down a 4th CG at Deus, it helps if you remember the double note G from the previous word "es".

The singer on the first video shows an interpretation without any pause or lengthening.

6 Jan - The Epiphany of Our Lord Introibo Daoudal /21 Baron Johner
		LU455 MV377	GR57
Intr. Ecce advenit Malach. 3, 1 ; 1 Par. 29, 12. Ps. 71, 1. Ps. 71, 10-11.	2	LU459 MV378	GR57 GB403 VPC42	C♯/D Classic piece in mode 2, not difficult. - You will probably recognize the same progression of notes (ACDED) as in the Offert. Vir erat (EGABA), same intervals although different key. - Might be worth remembering there is an identical 4th CF on dominator and et regnum.
Grad. Omnes de Saba Is. 60, 6 et 1.	5	LU459 MV379	GR57 GB205	C♯/E♭ - Be very careful at the drop a major 3rd down AF at deferentes. The notes A and F (even G) have been heard before but not this major 3rd. It is actually a classic mode 5 reverse progression of 3 notes CAF from the F Major chord. Three notes CAF which can be heard again at Domino, twice at annuntiantes, twice at Surge.
All. Vidimus stellam Matth. 2, 2.	2	LU460 MV380	GR58 GB524	E/F
Offert. Reges Tharsis Ps. 71, 10-11.	5	LU461 MV381	GR59 GB1147	A/B♭ - The melody on the words omnes gentes reminds us the Intr. Dominus dixit at Christmas Midnight Mass. Even though the Offertory is in mode 5 this double pattern seems to be in mode 2. Sing these two words lightly, no breathing in between.
Offert. Reges Tharsis (verses) Ps. 71, 10-11.	5		OF21 GB17700	A/B♭

Intr. Exsultet gaudio Prov. 23, 24 et 25. Ps. 83, 2-3. Ps. 83, 3 et 5.	7	LU470 MV393	GR59 GB336 VPC44	D/E♭ - The incipit starts a bit like the psalm tone 7. - If you can: sing together Pater tuus and Mater tua, meaning no breathing at the second quarter bar.
Grad. Unam petii Ps. 26, 4. Ps. 83, 5.	5	LU471 MV395	GR60 GB260	D/E♭ Not particularly difficult but: - Watch out the B flat on the word inhabitem. - The final melisms are common to Graduale in mode 5.
All. Vere tu es Isai. 45, 15.	8	LU472 MV396	GR61 GB816	F/G - Lovely jubilus on the word Alleluia. - Because the verse starts on a similar melody to the Alleluia, one can get caught to continue on the same jubilus after Vere tu es... but actually the next words Rex absconditus have a different flavour, starting by a minor 3rd up AC. Little help: memorize the note A as a safeguard as it will come back often. - You can enjoy the jubilus once again in the end with Salvator ... and again with the repeated Alleluia.

Tract. Hostiam Sept.	2	LU--- MV---	GR61 GB1153	Sung at a Votive Mass after Septuagesima instead of the previous Alleluia.

What do you think? - Watch out the starting note G at et erat: same note as two notes before. - The word subditus has five F: memorize this note to come back to it after going down FEC. - As indicated page VPC44 communion verses are to be found VPC37 or VPC64.

2nd Sunday after Epiphany Introibo Daoudal /21 Baron Johner
		LU484 MV407	GR67
Intr. Omnis terra Ps. 65, 4. 1-2. Ps. 65, 3, 5.	4	LU484 MV407	GR67 GB13 VPC45	F/F♯ - Memorize this long F note, it will come back many times as tristopha at the beginning of each phrase to express adoration to God. - Beware the difference between Omnis terra and psalmum dicat: first one goes FFF-DFE-EGAA, second one goes FFF-DFE-EFAA. - Watch out the minor 3rd down on the porrectus at "ti" of tibi.
Grad. Misit Dominus Ps. 106, 20-21.	5	LU485 MV409	GR68 GB932	D/E♭ - It goes top D on the first eos, no need to force the voice there. - Be very careful at the words de interitu eorum, the melody is tricky. I think the difficulty is to hit the G after B at the beginning of "rum", a major 3rd down GB so to be able to reach bottom D at the end of "rum" and start the verse on the same note. Maybe that's why this G is dotted: to make sure the pitch is right before going further. - Big breath for the long Confiteantur, it is doable. - Be careful at the end of Domino: carried by the melody one could sing an additional CBA... - The melody on et mirabilia is not particularly difficult but could be an occasion of tripping if not practiced enough.
All. Laudate Deum Ps. 148, 2.	4	LU486 MV410	GR68 GB538	F/G Melody similar to Alleluia from Advent 3rd, Ascension, Pentecost.
Offert. Jubilate Deo universa Ps. 65, 1-2 et 16. Ps. 65, 13 et 14.	1	LU486 MV411	GR69 GB937	B♭/C Same as 4th Sunday after Easter. - Great piece, starting on a classic 5th CD-DA-BbB. - Because it goes as high as note top E you'd better start on a low pitch, B flat as suggested. - The second jubilate Deo is beautiful, but very long; personally I take a quick breath in the ascending notes of "la", just after the tristropha on A, leaving others to breathe at the quarter bar. And you need enough air to transition smoothly from jubilate to Deo. - This proper is known to have two different B on a similar pattern (and same word terra): 1) B flat on the first word terra with FACAG-BbGA-BbA, 2) B natural on the second word terra with FACAG-BGA-CCA, etc. In a way the second one, B natural, is pulling you up so to reach the coming top C. - Then comes the part with high notes on venite, et audite, et narrabo. Use your classic techniques for singing the high notes: straight neck, looking down, pushing air from belly and diaphragm, etc. Relax. Sing light and smooth. - Careful at animae: it is DF-GFGF-FFF, not DF-GEFF-FF as recently heard on the words in Jerusalem from Holy Family offertory. Also pay attention at the rest of the word animae.
Offert. Jubilate Deo universa (verses) Ps. 65, 1-2 et 16. Ps. 65, 13 et 14.	1		OF69 GB16870 SOV13	B♭/C
Comm. Dicit Dominus Ioann. 2, 7, 8, 9 et 10-11. Ps. 65, 1-3, 5-6, 8-9.	6	LU487 MV412	GR70 GB230 VPC45 MV2005	D/E Difficult piece. Invest time to practice it. - First of all the pitch: if sung alone you can start the antiphon on E, but you might prefer D if you sing the psalm verses as well. - Some Latin words are tricky to the pronounce: hydrias, architriclino, gustasset, architriclinus. - Can you see on the word gustasset the B natural and the B flat? - Another lovely B flat at the word dicit (four notes actually), quite easy to pitch. - The next phrase Servasti vinum bonum usque adhuc is a bit acrobatic with the triple torculus-punctum CED-C. No need to rush here, but remember: the melody has to flow... like the good wine which is served now. - Notice the psalm verses, page VPC45, are in mode 5 when the antiphon itself is in mode 6.

Septuagesima Introibo Daoudal Baron Johner
Missa		LU496 MV427	GR73	NLM - Daoudal - Mesnil, St Augustin - La Septuagésime - Traits (vidéo)
Intr. Circumdederunt me Ps. 17, 5, 6 et 7. 2-3. Ps. 17, 4 et 7.	5	LU497 MV428	GR73 GB1168 VPC48	D/E♭ - Maybe a little difficulty: watch out the 5th down on the word invocavi.
Grad. Adjutor in opportunitatibus Ps. 9, 10-11 et 19-20.	3	LU498 MV430	GR74 GB222	E/F Difficult piece. Doable but need serious practice. - Careful at the incipit with the various 3rd and 4th. - The words qui noverunt are a bit tricky: starting on a small semitonesque second EF it jumps with DFA = three notes of a minor chord, giving this unique flavour. - Then you have a jump a 5th on quoniam which will come back again as a 4th two lines later on the same word. - A few notes difficult to pitch on Domine: 1) a 4th down CG on the porrectus, 2) then a major 3rd down AF, followed by another major 3rd up GB, 3) finally the porrectus on "mi" is episemed but not the ones on "ne", it is tempting to lengthen the whole. - After the second quoniam, the word non is divided in two parts: 1st part: chaotic movements between A and C, 2nd part: beautiful jump high BE-FDB followed by D-ECA; ECA composes a minor chord = minor third AC + major third CE but this particular set of notes FDB is called a "diminished" chord composed of two minor thirds BD and DF, as explained in this page: http://piano.about.com/od/chordskeys/a/dim_chords.htm: « Diminished Chords and "Dissonance" - The reason for a diminished chord's bizarre sound is its tonal instability (or "dissonance"). The intervals in a diminished triad, for example, are equally spaced – there are three intervals between B-D, and also between D-F – and this lack of harmony within the chord is what causes the ear to seek tonal resolution. » ... Therefore the need of the following ECA which makes the dissonance vanishing and brings back harmony. - Next you find again the three notes DFA of a minor chord on the word infinem like previously on noverunt. - The word pauperis has a quilisma followed by a liquescent, this liquescent is where you sing the "u" of "au". - Next the word patientia is syllabic, seems obvious but be careful on this DEGAG. - Double lovely pattern on aeternum to express life forever... I suppose. It will sound better if you sing the whole in one breath. - The final phrase starts with exsurge, Domine, wonderful with its three fourths. Sing with majesty. - The final word homo is beautiful too, with these ascending and descending notes from bottom D to top C, to conclude with the final E. This last phrase is a treat.
Tract. De profundis Ps. 129, 1-4.	8	LU499 MV431	GR75 GB926	E/F Famous psalm 129 from Wednesday Vespers. - Look at the three clivis AG on the first Domine. It sounds better if you give a different expression for each one, for example a bit more intensity to the second clivis (or the third one), so to make the group less monotonous. You can also express the first and third one, releasing the intensity on the second one, then expressing and holding the double top C. - Be careful at the first notes FABb of vocem: the apparition of the B flat gives a different flavour from the previous phrases. It comes back to B natural at the end of meam. - Fiant aures has two liquescents: one for the "n" and one for the "u". Also watch out the 5th down after the "u". - The word intendentes also has two liquescents for the two "n" but also a long melism on "tes": 1) try not to breath at the quarter bar and move on to the fourth down and up G/D, 2) you find again the three clivis AG, like above, to be sung with different expressions. - Then again these notes FABb on the word servi with the B flat, developing like before on the words vocem meam. - Then for the third time we encounter the three clivis on the third occurrence of Domine. Sing like explained above. - The words Quia apud te do not follow the classic GAC from mode 8 but mark a step at B first before reaching the C. After that watch out the 4th CG to get down to propitiatio: same note G as the starting of the verse. - In the end pay attention to the transition from "mi" to "ne" on the last occurrence of Domine.
Offert. Bonum est confiteri Ps. 91, 2. Ps. 91, 6.	8	LU501 MV433	GR76 GB1194 OF26 SOV6	D/E♭ Worth quoting the words in English: « It is good to give praise to the Lord, and to sing to thy name, O Most High ». That's what we do here. - First: pay attention to the change of flavour after the incipit, the word confiteri will go GAC but it starts with a low fourth DG. What I do before we start: I play on the keyboard a few incipit notes then the 3 notes G-A-C (including both dominant and final in this mode 8), so it goes this way: Eb-Eb-G-F-F then a quick F-G-Bb. This way the ear is prepared for the next. - I love the climbing of notes to the highest CDE to emphasize this word psallere = sing, reaching the choir of angels in Heaven. - Dom Johner indicates the third part should be sung crescendo to the third pressus, through the word Altissime. - Overall sing this Offertory on a slow pace full of awe.
Comm. Illumina faciem Ps. 30, 17-18. Ps. 30, 2-6, 7-9.	1	LU501 MV434	GR76 GB640 VPC48 MV2006	D/E♭ - Sing this one gently. - Lovely transition a 4th down from A to E, from salvum to me.

Sexagesima Introibo /23 Daoudal /21 Baron Johner
		LU504 MV436	GR77
Intr. Exsurge Ps. 43, 23-26. 2. Ps. 43, 2-3.	1	LU504 MV436	GR77 GB529 VPC48	D/E♭ A beautiful piece, full of emotion. A plea to God. Listen to the first video and the tremendous interpretation by the monks. - After obdormis Domine you might want to go through the half bar without stopping, it sounds better. - No pause at the quarter bar between exsurge Domine and adjuva nos.
Grad. Sciant gentes Ps. 82, 19 et 14.	1	LU506 MV439	GR78 GB1265	C/C♯ - Take plenty of air to sing the long incipit in one breath. - Careful at tu solus: it ends on a G, not natural in mode 1. - The word terram has difficult up and down, think of memorizing the long starting F as you come back to it after the torculus. Then there is the projection from the dotted E to the episemed A, hopefully without any pause at the quarter bar. - ut rotam starts on the same G as the previous word illos and the word rotam also starts on G; sounds obvious but... - Here too you might want to sing the whole rotam in one breath. It's doable. - Watch out the second "disconnected" quilisma on stipulam: it goes E-G-A, not consecutive notes.
Tract. Commovisti Ps. 59, 4 et 6.	8	LU507 MV440	GR78 GB1178	B/C - Here too there is a long incipit. Eventually you can breathe at the quarter bar but if you can do it in one breath do it. - The word eam after conturbasti has a long melism, if you want to breathe it is better to breathe at second quarter bar after the dotted F. - The word est after mota has big 4th jumps, don't lengthen the ictus notes on G. - Be careful at the 5th down DG on the word arcus; there is a dotted G for everybody to regroup before moving on.
Offert. Perfice gressus Ps. 16, 5, 6-7. Ps. 16, 1.	4	LU508 MV442	GR79 GB265 OF90 SOV6	C♯/E♭ Will be sung again on 6th Sunday after Pentecost. - Memorize the note F as it is the main recitating note. - In the end, after facis make a little pause to get the D right, down a fourth from G.
Comm. Introibo Ps. 42, 4. Ps. 42, 1-3, 4-6.	8	LU508 MV443	GR80 GB554 VPC49 MV2007	E/F Words pronounced by the priest at the foot of the altar, when the mass starts. - Think to emphasize the word Dei, not forgetting to lenghten the beginning of the word. - Make sure to separate the two "d" of ad and Deum. - At the word laetificat it is tempting to come back to G (mode 8 final) when actually it is the same note A as the previous word qui. Maybe that's why there is an episema (lengthening) on the note, to regroup and stabilise before continuing. - The word juventutem is a bit tricky: one wants to climb to C but there is a successing of three AG before going to B and C. Also I tend to say the "m" early, like juventum instead of juventutem...

Quinquagesima Introibo /22 Daoudal /21 Baron Johner
		LU510 MV444	GR80
Intr. Esto mihi Ps. 30, 3-4. 2. Ps. 30, 3 et 6.	6	LU511 MV444	GR80 GB1381 VPC49	F/G - Notice the mode 6 final F which is very present all along this proper. - The words quoniam firmamentum are sung with the intonation/tenor/ending of psalm tone 6. It continues in a similar way with et refugium meum, ends with a solid bottom C on the words es tu. - Lovely long C on dux mihi « thou will be my leader », top notes probably indicates what is coming from Heaven above. - The word enutries is a bit difficult: only one note on the initial "e", the temptation is to continue the melody and stay with this vowel when the melody actually continues with four notes on "nu". Then one has to remember the various lengthenings on "tri" and "es", as well as the final "me".
Grad. Tu es Deus Ps. 76, 15 et 16.	3	LU512 MV446	GR81 GB850	A/B♭ - Watch the various B in this proper, especially followed by C. - Also memorize the E, final of mode 3, it appears here and there. - Notice a rare 5th on a torculus resupinus at the word notam. - Next you encounter a succession of major thirds up and down GB and BG on the words fecisti and gentibus. The word gentibus continues with a jump down a 4th AE on "bus": that's where you remember the importance of memorizing the E. - The four notes GC-AB of "vir" on the word virtutem are a bit tricky to sing. Before you start, visualize the fourth GC then insert the second AB. - Another place to look at the various B: in brachio tuo where most of the notes stay between C and A, a little interval of three semitones, when the ear would like to come back to the G of Liberasti. Also here it is tempting to sing not one but two or three notes on "tu"... It is the next "o" which takes all the five ending notes before the quarter bar. Eventually do not breathe at this quarter bar but take one good breath before in brachio.
Tract. Jubilate Domino Ps. 99, 1-2.	8	LU513 MV447	GR82 GB1299	E/F - Similar melody and patterns like in the Tract. De profundis from Septuagesima. Same advices apply here. Notice though at the end of laetitia the additional F which differs from similar patterns. - You will find again this FABb on two occurrences: in (laetitia) and ipse (est Deus). - Little difficulty on Ipse fecit nos: the melody is going down but not as quickly as one would think, lots of semitones C to B. Big breath after that at the half bar to sing the next et non ipsi nos. And as before sing crescendo the three clivis on nos. - Lovely triple climacus (more like "podatus sub-bipunctis") on the second nos. - Finish the last ejus in one breath after a little pause after the star.
Offert. Benedictus es... in labiis Ps. 118, 12-13. Ps. 118, 1, 2.	3	LU514 MV449	GR83 GB1317 OF28 SOV7	E/F - The second benedictus has the same notes as the first one (incipit) although the notes are not episemed. - On two occasions: tuas and pronuntiavi, in the end there is a CAA-FGF which is not necessarily easy to grab, the ear would rather go down a fourth with CGG-FGF. - Make a pause at the last quarter to prepare the ending oris tui, beautiful with the elevating fourths and the finish on semitones: A/Bb and F/E, reflecting on the words « all the judgments of thy mouth ».
Comm. Manducaverunt Ps. 77, 29-30. Ps. 77, 1, 3, 4, 23-25, 27-28.	1	LU515 MV450	GR84 GB677 VPC50 MV2007	D/E♭

		LU519 MV452	GR84
Ant. Exaudi nos Ps. 68, 17. 2.	7	LU521 MV452	GR84 GB1081	D/E♭ Sung during the blessing of ashes.
Ant. Immutemur habitu Ioel. 2, 13.	1	LU523 MV454	GR85 GB313	G/G♯ Sung during the imposition of ashes. - At the half bar after in cinere it starts a fifth higher, visualise the interval before moving on. - Watch out the B flat on jejuneus. - Notice the change of B as well on antge Dominum: B natural twice then B flat three times. - Don't forget the "s" at the end of misericors. - There is a major third down AF on Deus, with an episema on A to visualise the interval before taking it.
Ant. Juxta vestibulum Ioel. 2, 17.	4	LU523 MV455	GR85 GB1208	F/F♯ Sung during the imposition of ashes. - Lots of sadness on the fourth down AE at the end of plorabunt sacerdotes (the priests shall weep). - Parce Domine is easy, put expression in it: plea for mercy. - But be very careful at parce populo tuo, you would expect it lands on D but it keeps coming back to F, ends on F. - dissipes might be tricky unless you sing the two torculus neumes on their own. - Lovely melodic phrase on ora clamantium.
Resp. Emendemus Esther 13 ; Ioel. 2. Ps. 78, 9.	2	LU524 MV455	GR86 GB743	C♯/D Sung during the imposition of ashes. - Do not break the phrase ne subito...: no pause before die mortis. - Beautiful fall on bottom A at paenitentiae. - Lovely refrain Attende Domine..., very dramatic and penitential. Avoid breathing at the quarter bar. - Hear the cry of misery at quia peccavimus tibi: "for we have sinned against thee."

Intr. Misereris omnium Sap, 11, 24, 25 et 27. Ps. 56, 2. Ps. 56, 3-4.	1	LU525 MV457	GR87 GB533 VPC50	F/F♯ - Notice the fourth up DG at quae fecisti. - Same fourth but down on peccata, be ready to come back to FGA (like Do-Re-Mi). And don't forget the B flat on top. - Another dramatic effect with the top notes of paenitentiam; by the way: anticipate "ti-am" by singing "tsi-am", otherwise it is too late when you come to "am".
Grad. Miserere mei Deus Ps. 56, 2 et 4.	1	LU526 MV458	GR88 GB754	D/E♭ - The second Miserere mei has large amplitudes and a long melism. Transition through the quarter bar is made by a little bouncing on F before climbing GA to C; a distropha on C prepares for the big drop CAF after that. - quoniam ends on G before the quarter bar, not necessarily easy to pause on G in mode 1, that's why it is better to move on without pausing. - Watch out the minor third GE + major third FA on the word confidit, a major third always needs a little push when it goes up. - Be careful at the word anima: it starts the same as quoniam and it is tempting to hit top C, but instead it goes back to the lowest notes of the scale. - The word caelo has a major third FA (4 semitones) followed by a B flat (1 semitone): one has to refrain his voice not to go higher than a semitone. - Again caelo has a long melism after the quarter bar and there is an important lengthening at the dotted A in the middle, the place where you regroup (without stopping) before going further. Because there is a minor third down CA followed by a fourth down CG; it is tempting to sing the third as a fourth, anticipating the fourth which comes only later. - The words dedit in follow a reversed major chord progression: CAF, and the A is the same note ending the previous word me, just something to remember.
Tract. Domine non secundum Ps. 102, 10. Ps. 78, 8-9.	2	LU527 MV459	GR89 GB425	F♯/G With Ash Wednesday starts a serie of tracts in mode 2, sad mode, penitential. See the tract Qui habitat on 1st Sunday of Lent for more explanation about this type of proper. Notice that: we all kneel at the verse Adjuva nos. - On the word nobis: I find difficult to come back to D after bottom A, the trick is to remember D from three notes before or sing the same porrectus DCD. - Try to go through without breathing at the quarter bar after iniquitatum nostrarum. - As well go through the quarter bar after et propter gloriam... - Make a pause after et propitius esto and enjoy the top notes of the melody at peccatis nostris.
Offert. Exaltabo te Ps. 29, 2-3.

1st Sunday of Lent (or 1st Sunday in Quadragesima) Introibo /21 Daoudal /19 Baron Johner
		LU530 MV463	GR93	Note: on that day the tract and all the propers come from psalm 90 which is the second psalm of Sunday Compline ("Lord protect me from the terrors of the night").
Intr. Invocabit me Ps. 90, 15 et 16. 1. Ps. 90, 2 et 11.	8	LU532 MV463	GR93 GB327 VPC53	E/F - When you have the C clef on the second line expect a major third between the 3rd and 4th line; especially on the final porrectus of eripiam.
Grad. Angelis suis Ps. 90, 11-12.	2A	LU533 MV465	GR94 GB834	E/F Melody similar to Grad. Justus ut palma from the Mass `I` of a Confessor not a Bishop or the Grad. Requiem from the Requiem Mass. - Not particularly difficult if you are familiar with this family of Graduals. Dom Johner has a long explanation on the melody structure. - Maybe some attention at the last notes of portabunt te... - And do not forget the "n" at the end of offendas.
Tract. Qui habitat Ps. 90, 1-7 et 11-16.	2	LU533 MV466	GR95 GB889	F♯/G The tract is mode 2 with an F clef. Mode 2 is known to express sadness, as well as contentment and security. In mode 2 with F clef, final is D, tenor is F. One walks through guided by the double rail D-F; D-F is a minor 3rd (remember "Bridge over the river Kwai"?). D-F are the two first notes of introit Dominus dixit (same mode) at Midnight Mass. This is a bit similar to mode 2 with C clef of Offertory 21st Sunday after Pentecost = Vir erat (in terra nomine Job); in this mode 2, final/tenor = A/C Detail of the 13 verses (1 antiphon + 12 verses): Most of the verses end with a soft landing pattern 'DEED.' (two long notes in the end), they all end on the final D of mode 2. Most of the verses have a pause in the middle (long bar) preceded by a similar lovely pattern 'DCEEDEFGDDC.\|' begin ___ middle ___ end 1.A DD __CDEDEEDEFGDDC.\| ___ DEED. 2.V FG ___ DCEEDEFGDDC.\| ___ DEED. with 'DEDEDEDEDEDE' (2) 3.V DC __CDEDEEDEFGDDC.\| ___ DEED. 4.V GF ___ DCEEDEFGDDC.\| ___ DEED. 5.V FF ___ DCEEDEFGDDC.\| ___ DEED. 6.V DF ___ DCEEDEFGDDC.\| ___ CDEDEEDEFGDDC.\| ___ DFDD. (6) 7.V FG ___ DCEEDEFGDDC.\| ___ DEED. 8.V DC ___ DCEEDEFGDDC.\| ___ DEED. 9.V FG ___ DCEEDEFGDDC.\| ___ DEED. 10.V DF ___ DFDDC.\| ___ DEE.D. (10) 11.V DD ___ DCEEDEFGDDC.\| ___ DEED. (11 and 13) 12.V DF ___ DCEEDEFGDDC.\| ___ DEED. 13.V FG ___ DCEEDEFGDDC.\| ___ DEED. (11 and 13) (13) (2) interesting pattern 'DEDEDEDEDEDE' in the middle: "et refúúúúú - gi-i - u-um mé-é - u-um, Dé-é - u-us" = "my refuge: (my) God" this repeated 'DE' is like a heartbeat, repeated 6 times like that 6th day of Good Friday where Jesus' heart did beat for mankind more than ever. (6) in this verse the ending is different: coming of the devil, troubling the harmony of the ending, daemonio meridiano = "noonday devil". Curiously this is the 6th phrase like the 6th day and "noonday" = sext = 6th hour, the hour of the darkness when Jesus was crucified. (6) plus in this verse there is an additional full bar and a pattern 'CDEDEEDEFGDDC.\|' before it... as the verse is split in 3 parts. (10) the middle pattern 'DFDDC.\|' is different here, shorter; one's foot walks (ambulabis) over the lion, the serpent, the dragon... better be quick. (10) both last note and penultimate note are dotted, why? Maybe not important. Or maybe to give a rest after the confrontation with the lion, the serpent and the dragon... (1 and 11) Both verses start the same way: double D lengthened / "episema-ed", possibly to put the two verses in parallel. (11 and 13) similar pattern 'DFEFD DFFFFF DCEEDEFGDDC' for: 11. liberabo eum* = "I will deliver him" 13. glorificabo eum = "I will glorify him" 13. adimplebo eum = "I will fill him" (with length of days) Do you remember? The pattern 'DFEFD' can be heard twice as 'ACBCA' in Vir erat at the words in facultate et in carne. (13) Once again we find the heartbeat 'DEDE' on '-dine' of longitudine "I will fill him with long days", a way of saying: and your heart will beat for a long time which is also expressed by the long distropha + tristropha of dierum (days). The end is divine, especially the "illi" of et ostendam illi salutare meum = "and I will show him my salvation". Look at the tract for Ash Wednesday, same mode 2 with F clef, and you will see a lot of similar patterns. Dom Daniel Saulnier in "Les modes grégoriens" says that mode 2 appears as the most human mode. The soul has this attitude made of a little bit of humility but a lot of realism and common sense; it is one of the states of mind of the trustful sinner. This climate is very spiritual and very human. ------------------------------------ Grabbed from the Web: http://www.newliturgicalmovement.org/2009/02/qui-habitat-tract-for-1-lent.html http://musicasacra.com/2009/02/25/the-first-sunday-of-lent-a-note-on-the-tract/ http://www.introibo.fr/1er-Dimanche-de-Careme (in French) http://liberreader.wordpress.com/2012/02/23/qui-habitat-mode-2-tract-analysis/ by Jonathan K. Dom Johner says: « In the temptation of Christ narrated in today's Gospel, the tempter quotes verses of Psalm 90. Now he must hear these verses, applied in their proper sense, of course, many a time during the Lenten season. A fine irony is revealed thereby. Today, in fact, the songs are taken exclusively from the ninetieth psalm. But there is another reason for the profuse employment of this psalm today: it is the song which best expresses confidence in God. Now that the great days of penance and mortification are at hand, and we give ourselves entirely to God, we are, according to the teaching of the current liturgy, justified in relying on the special protection of the Most High. He will guard His own against all the enemies of the soul, against sin and concupiscence and the evil spirit. » In this article from The Chant Café there is an interesting comment from a certain "Mahrt" (I wonder if he is the William Mahrt...), From time to eternity interlectionary. « We began to sing the long tracts that way, singing the first and last Gregorian verses and the rest in a psalm tone; after a while, we made it two Gregorian verses at the beginning and at the end. Eventually, like the building of the Southern Pacific Railway the two parts met in the middle. I think this gradua expansion over the years prepared the congregation for the whole tract. Now we include in the leaflet for the congregation a note on the tract: The Sunday which heads the Lenten season takes its theme from the paradigm of all Christian fasting: Jesus' forty-day fast in the desert and his temptation by the devil there. In tempting Jesus to show his divinity by casting himself down from the parapet of the temple, the devil quoted Psalm 90, "He hath given his angels charge over thee, and in their hands shall they bear thee up, lest perhaps thou dash thy foot against a stone." This quotation is such a powerful memory of the event of the temptation that the psalm is the source of all the Propers of the Mass for this Sunday. Rarely are Mass Propers so unified; moreover, the place of this psalm is even more emphasized by the fact that the tract for the day comprises most of the verses of the psalm. The tract is direct psalmody – the singing of successive verses of a psalm without refrain, and it is sung in alternation by two halves of the choir. By replacing the alleluia sung in the normal seasons, it represents a kind of fasting from the wordless jubilation of the alleluia. While the tract normally comprises three to five verses of a psalm, the tract for this day has thirteen verses. Only two other days have these long tracts: Palm Sunday and Good Friday. On these days, the Passions are sung, and the tract serves as a long preparation for these extended Gospels. Today, however, the long tract simply stands by itself, and its function could be seen as an intense entry into the Lenten Season, a turning to God as refuge and protector. Throughout the Lenten season, the tracts can be the point of recollection in the liturgy and a meditative preparation for the hearing of the Gospel. » If difficulty or time forbids the singing of this proper, there is a psalm tone version of it: see below. The Liber Brevior page [1] = page 675 of the PDF has a section called "Graduals, Versicles of the Alleluia and Tracts, in the tones of simple or solemn psalmody". And the Tract for 1st Sunday of Lent is found page [17] = page 691 of the PDF, although it's got the music only for verses 1 and 2, the others verses have bold and italic to indicate the changes in the psalmody. Advantage: it takes 2 pages instead of 4. See below:
Tract. Qui habitat Ps. 90, 1-7 et 11-16. (in psalm tone)	2	LU8*	LB[17]	E/F If it is not possible to sing the whole Gregorian melody for the tract Qui habitat (difficulty, time, etc.), this is a psalm tone version found in the Liber Usualis page 8* and in the Liber Brevior page [17].
Tract. Qui habitat Ps. 90, 1-7 et 11-16. (mixed version)	2	LU533 LU8*	GR95 LB[17]	F♯/G A mixed version to make it shorter: - Gregorian melody for two verses at the beginning, two verses at the end, the rest in simple psalm tone (from the Liber Brevior). Duration: 4:49. - One difficulty is to switch from Gregorian melody to psalm tone, and vice-versa.
Tract. Qui habitat Ps. 90, 1-7 et 11-16. (another version)	2	LU533 MV466	GR95	F To make the tract shorter, this is an interesting and original creation in 2013 by Paul Kolb (from The Newman Consort). First verse is with full Gregorian melody. Then each of the following 11 verses are sung not as psalm tone but with a recitation note F for the main part, keeping the first and last few notes from the Gregorian melody. The last verse is a mix between recitation and Gregorian melody. In total it takes 4:36 instead of the usual 12 min.
Offert. Scapulis suis Ps. 90, 4-5. Ps. 90, 2, 5.	8	LU537 MV471	GR98 GB294 OF32 SOV8	F♯/G - Offertory and Communion share the same Latin text for the antiphon. One might confuse the melodies, both modes 8 and 3 have the recitation (tenor) on C. The difference can be sensed by the many times the note G (final) appears in this offertory in mode 8. - Now it might a good idea to play the note C for this offertory when playing the few notes for the incipit. - If you are lost at pitching the podatus AC on the word scuto, remember the same podatus from a few notes ago on sperabis. - Veritas starts on the same two notes FG heard just before the half bar; after that it is just a minor third to reach the B flat.
Comm. Scapulis suis Ps. 90, 4-5. Ps. 90, 1-3, 11-15.	3	LU537 MV472	GR99 GB1100 VPC53 MV2008	E/F - After what was said for the Offertory, here in this Communion proper you will find all the phrases end on E, mode 3 final. - Lovely melodic line on sub pennis ejus = "under His wings". - On the word scuto no need to lenghten all the notes under the long episema, just the first note of the clivis and the first note of the torculus. - The words veritas ejus have a ressembling structure to the same words from the Offertory, one can see the major third AF.
