Trope. Sanctissimus namque Gregorius |
8 | Trope GB4654  GV1 |
 E/F♯
- 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♯
- 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. |

|
Offert. Ad te Domine Ps. 24, 1-3. |
2 | LU321 MV265 |
GR3 GB962 |
 C♯/D
- 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. |

- 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. |

- 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♭
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. |

 B♭
- 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. |

- 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. |

- 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. |

- 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. |

- 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. |

- 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.

 B/C♯
- 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. |

- 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". |

- 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. |

- 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. |

GR69 GB937 |
 B♭/C
- 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. |

GR70 GB230 VPC45 MV2005 |
 D/E
- 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. |

 E/F
- 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:
- 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. |

|

8 | LU499 MV431 |
GR75 GB926 |
 E/F
- 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. |

GR76 GB1194 OF26 SOV6 |
 D/E♭
- 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. |

 C/C♯
- 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. |

 E/F
- 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... |

6 | LU511 MV444 |
GR80 GB1381 VPC49 |
 F/G
- 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♭
- 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
- 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. |

 E/F
- 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 ». |

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. |

- 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♭
- 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. |

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: |

- 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. |

- 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. |

 D/E♭
- Difficult third down EC on semper, use the episema to mentally visualise the jump. - Before starting the word respice, visualise the three notes DCE. - Be careful at the words pauper sum ego: the "per sum" particularly has two major thirds, down and up. - Place the "u" of pauper on the liquescent, note G. |
|||
|
Grad. Exsurge... non praevaleat Ps. 9, 20 et 4. |
3 | LU553 MV483 |
GR123 GB1298 |
 D/E♭
- Mode 3 = mystic. Sing it with a steady pace to reflect this mystic mood. - There are a few similar groups of notes with two torculus: G-ABA-BCB, like Do-Re-Mi-Fa, coming back a few times: on praevaleat, judicentur, in conspectu. - Watch out the major third down AF on tuo, as well as tua in the end. - Do not pause between inimicum and tuum. - Read carefully the notes of retrorsum, especially around the porrectus at the top. - There is a long "peribuuuunt" and after that a longer "facieeeee" to be sung in one breath... if you can, or breathe at the first quarter bar. Good breathing exercise. Relax. Words are expressive: "You have made my enemy perish before Your face". So to make a point. God speaks to his people through the words, through His Word, and the Church expresses through the chant. - As Dom Gajard from Solesmes once said: "You see, Gregorian chant is the official commentary, given authentically by the Church, of liturgical texts". And it's obvious this proper reflects that. "Rise, O Lord, let not man prevail; let the nations be judged in Your presence. V. Because my enemies are turned back, overthrown and destroyed before You." (source) |

Tract. Ad te levavi Ps. 122, 1-3. |
8 | LU554 MV484 |
GR124 GB1329 |
 B/C
* v1. Be careful at the incipit Ad te levavi, especially the "va" which pulls the notes up in preparation for the "vi". - Big breath before qui habitas in caelis. Keep some air for the final "lis". * v2. Go gently through the word oculi, articulate the torculus, and without delay move on to the next word ancillae. * v4. On the torculus resupinus of the word ita there is an episema: no need to lengthen everything it would be fastidious; lengthen the first and second notes, come back to speed on the third and sing the fourth note as normal. - Watch out the word Deum and the transitional note on B. Move swiftly towards nostrum, it is not comfortable to stay on B. * v5. The final is pretty classic for a Tract in mode 8. |

4 | LU555 MV487 |

 D/F
Rather becalmed, melodically speaking. Mode 4 = harmonious. To be sung on a calm pace, most of the time on F and ending on E, mode 4 final. Not much to say except the words: "The precepts of the Lord are right, rejoicing the heart, and His ordinances are sweeter than syrup or honey from the comb; therefore Your servant is careful of them." - Lovely melody on super mel et favum. Enjoy it. - There are three time the word et, think of distinctively pronounce the "t", on liquescent if any. - The same applies for the "et" in the word custodiet. Johner and Daoudal explain the offertory sounds like a mode 6 all along except the ending on E, mode 4 final. The first editions of Liber Gradualis 1883 and 1895 had a different ending, instead of A-G-F G-F-E E (mode 4, harmonious) the offertory would end by A-G-F A-G-F F (mode 6, devout). |

1A | LU556 MV487 |
GR126 GB1090 VPC64 MV2009 |
 F/F♯
- Yes this Communion proper is very strange: mode 1 (= serious) but with final A. The C clef of mode 1 is usually on the top line but here it is on the 3rd line from the top. It should sound like a mode 1 as the final is on the bottom line and the recitation is on the second line from the top (see psalm verses). This proper is a bit technical and challenging but not that long. - I like the 'take-off' of the "passer" (sparrow / passereau in French) = a fourth CF and the wing flap of the "turtur" (swallow / tourterelle in French... which is a dove) = DE-CD-DE. See: the monk was an artist and, as you said rightly, used a quill. - Sing the whole invenit sibit domum, et turtur nidum in one breath and swiftly. - No pause between Rex meus and et Deus meus as well. Take a big breath before. - The melody on beati qui habitant can be bit tricky, stay focused. Practice and practice and it will become familiar. - Here too, no pause between beati qui habitant and in domo tua. Breathe plenty of air. - On the word laudabunt, sing the first "u" on the liquescent note E. - Suggestion for the verse number 5 of the psalm: cut it in half at the coma, like this: 5. Qui-a mélior est dies una in átriis tu-is, * su1-per2 míl3-li4-a5. |

 D/E♭
- Be careful to F-Bb on the incipit, it is actually a perfect fourth (5 semitones). - Lovely progression of notes on the word Jerusalem: FGA-CC. You might want the choir to join quickly after the incipit. - Notice the many words where "ti" is pronounced "tsi" as followed by a wovel: laetitia, tristitia, satiemini, consolationis. - Jump a fourth GC on exsultetis followed by a major third, expressing the exultation. - Long and lengthened neumes on satiemini to express the fulfillment. ... I made a mistake when recording this word satiemini: I sang satie-mihi. Doh! Sorry for that. |

 F/F♯
Lovely piece too, familiar melody but a few things to remember. - The C clef is on the third line; expect the semitone EF between the second line and above, which appears first time on the word sum. - Mode 7 final G happens at the end of the antiphon and the verse, located at the bottom of the staff. But in this piece it also appears a few times at the top, first line, especially after a fourth DG; it is many times lengthened and looks like a tenor of a pseudo mode 8 with the couple final/tenor = D/G. - Do no pause at the quarter bar on the word mihi. - Be careful at the various intervals up and down on the word ibimus, remembering the semitone BC below the 3rd line. - Lovely expression of peace on the words Fiat pax, starting a fifth GD higher than the previous word ibimus, then jumping a fourth DG after the porrectus and peaking top A. - Long and lengthened neumes on the word abundantia, starting on a fifth GD, covering an octave, expressing abundance. - On the last word tuis remember to sing the "s" at the end, do not anticipate it at the quarter bar... |

 E/F
* v1. On the word Domino go easy on the descending notes A-GF of "mino". - Tricky melody on the words sicut mons Sion. It starts on a semitone BB-C, major third higher than Domino. After that, those using the Graduale Romanum have to turn the page early and be ready for the porrectus DBC on mons and the rest... If possible articulate the two "s" between mons and Sion. Finally do not say the "n" of Sion too early at the quarter bar but at the end before the full bar. - On the word commovebitur, go down a minor third at bi, it is tempting to go down a fourth. - In the word habitat count the four notes GF-GA (clivis-podatus) on "tat". * v2. Interesting melody on the word Montes = mountains. 
It starts on a double fourth which mimics the sound of an
Alphorn (horn from the Alp mountains).
And then it goes up and down and up and down, like the valleys and peaks of mountains.
Who composed this piece must have lived in a mountain...Do not lengthen the ictus on the fourth DG, it will sound better like that. Just go light. And no pause at the quarter bar. - At the end of Dominus notice the second climacus has four notes CBAG when the first one has three EDC. - On the word circuitu count the five notes GA-CBC (podatus-porrectus). It might help to breathe next, at the apostophe. - Also breathe after usque to sing the end in one breath. |

- Be careful to the word participatio, in Church Latin it is pronounced par-ti-tchi-pa-tsi-o. And at the same time focus on the melody slowly going up. - Lovely melody on the descending notes of ejus in idipsum, somehow repeated at tribus, tribus Domini. Go light and gently on these notes. |

 E/F
- Play a few notes for the incipit: EGFE. - Try not to pause at the quarter bar after causam meam. Interesting how the melody on the word causam is familiar and seems easy to remember. - Watch out the major third down BG at gente, with a lengthened G to regroup. - quia tu starts on G which is a major third down BG from the previous word me; another way to pitch this G is to memorize the lengthened G at the end of doloso. |

 D/E♭
- Take a good breath before inimicis meis, there is a long melism on "meis". And remember to say the "s" at the end, not at the quarter bar. - The porrectus of facere starts on two notes C and A, sung before on the word me. So it is just a repetition of the same CA. - Also watch out the drop a major third down BG at facere. Plus the second one AF at the end. - Take a good breath at the quarter bar after voluntatem before engaging the long melism of tuam. - If you have to breathe on liberator meus it sounds better if you pause at the second quarter bar. Otherwise if you are two cantors, the other one can breathe at the first quarter bar, and later eventually. And don't forget the "s" at the end. - The melody on the word iracundis is tricky: tristropha + episemed C then semitone towards B, coming back to dotted note C and once again B, so it is really like a repetition; the difficulty comes with the jump a minor third BD followed by a gentle come back on the climacus DCB. After that it is easier. - The next words ab insurgentibus are a bit difficult to articulate at first (especially the "ab") ending on a semitone CB... and without any pause it continues towards in me. It ends strangely on a semitone FE after a drop a major third AF. - In the same way the words exaltabis me end on a semitone CB followed by a full bar, a big stop. - The intervals on the words a viro are tricky: there is the podatus minor third DB followed by a torculus CED which is actually a big major third. If you don't push it high enough you might miss the coming back to D at iniquo. - Watch out the two major thirds on the last word me: BG and AF; especially the second one AF: during the first distropha AA visualise the F as major third then sing a simple Do-Re-Mi for FGA, and find the second distropha AA, same as before. |
|||
|
Tract. Saepe expugnaverunt Ps. 128, 1-4. |
8 | LU571 MV500 |
GR153 GB742 |
 E/F
- Watch out the B flat on the word expugnaverunt. * v2. Like the Tract. Ad te levavi from 3rd Sunday of Lent you find again an episema on top of a torculus resupinus, here on the word dicat: no need to lengthen everything it would be fastidious; lengthen the first and second notes, come back to speed on the third and sing the fourth note as normal. - Before starting the word saepe, visualise the major third FA in your head / ear. - Walk carefully through the second expugnaverunt, there are a few neumes but only one note C on "ve". - On the words a juventute mea it can be done by pausing and breathing after juventute and sing the rest in one breath. - Now there is a big difficulty on mea: the coming of the B flat, and you don't expect it especially after the few B natural; fortunately you have a double A and a dotted G to prepare yourself for it. The end of the verse is a well-known pattern for a Tract in mode 8 . * v3. First difficulty is the jump a fourth GC on potuerunt, anticipated by a podatus FG. Go light to reach top C. - The syllable "sum" on the word dorsum starts on G, the same note as supra, one note to remember. * v4. The same podatus FG + fourth GC can be heard on iniquitatem. - The first syllable of concidet has many as seven notes, it is tempting to say the "ci" too early... - Be very careful at the last neume, on peccatorum: unlike a classic mode 8 Tract ending it has this little hold on two notes C before releasing the finish... You don't want to trip at the last second. |

- Difficult descent AFD on toto, no need to rush, let your voice descend naturally.

 E/F
This is My Body, which shall be given up for you: this is the cup of the new covenant in My Blood. - The only semitone comes with E and a strange fourth down AE on pro vobis, like a reaching down to the people. - Eventually the association of tenor C and final G happens at dicit Dominus and it is a relief. Says the Lord. - Remember to pronounce quotiescumque as quo-tsi-escumque. - The top notes CDEED emphasizes a solemn command: Do this as often as you receive it, in remembrance of Me. - And we are back to the four notes FGAB for the end of the antiphon. - You might experience a strange sensation when singing the psalm verses which is purely (solemn) psalm tone 8, after the antiphon which can barely be described as a mode 8. - And of course no Gloria Patri at the end of the psalm verses. |

- Similar melody but different anyway. - Watch out the double A-G on the word prosternabant, do not rush this part. |
|||
|
1 Ant. Occurrunt turbae |
8 | LU584 MV513 |
GR170 GB247 |
 F♯/G
- On cum floribus don't forget to reach top D before coming back. - The melody on the words digna dant obsequia is a bit tricky, especially to catch the minor third AC after the descending DCB; the A is just a tone lower than B... - Do not pause at the quarter bar after Filium Dei. |
|||
|
2 Ant. Cum angelis (et pueris) |
7 | LU585 MV514 |

8 | LU592 MV522 |
GR178 GB1171 VPC77 |
 B/C
- No pause between meam and aspice and think about going high enough on the top D; then sing a long "pi" on aspice. - It might be a good idea to breathe after et a cornibus to count the notes on unicornuorum: 3-2-2-1 before the jump GC. - No Gloria Patri after the verse. |
|||
|
Grad. Tenuisti manum Ps. 72, 24 et 1-3. |
4 | LU593 MV524 LB208 |
GR179 GB49 |
 C/C♯
Maybe it will be easier to sing the verse in psalm tone (see mixed version below). - Here too count the notes on the tricky word voluntate: 4-1-1-3. - Be very careful on the word me after assumpsisti: at first, pause at the quarter bar after the easy fourth GD and DEFG; second sing FGA like a Do-Re-Mi to come back to the same F followed by E, semitone, then F again, hold the note on the episema to jump a third FA + a semitone ABb, quickly followed by a minor third down BbG which is already tricky; and then we come to the difficult note: the A and be sure you are on A, it is lenghtened. Then you can take the ending, torculus GAG and clivis GE. Oof! - Sorry for not analysing the verse... A bit difficult for me. We'll sing it in psalm tone. |

- Here the tenor as well as the final are both F but notice the G on clavorum, up a tone to emphasize the word "nails". How about a brief moment of contemplation? - Then the severe admonition noli esse incredulus, sed fidelis (be unbeliever no more, but faithful) slowly ending towards the grave bottom C, out of the staff, maybe reminding us that if one does not believe one knows where one will end... Personally I roll the "r" of incredulus for little dramatization. - Finally enjoy the beautiful jubilus on the final two Alleluia, echo to the first Alleluia, closing the hymn on F where it began, Alpha and Omega. |

- Expand the "o" of omnis to express the whooole world. - On the word nomini, syllable "mi": careful to descend a minor third CA, it is tempting to go a fourth CG. Same applies on "ri" of gloriam. - Enjoy the 3 final Alleluia, possibly in one breath, it's doable. Well enjoy all of them, it's beautiful mode 8; there are 5 Alleluia in total in this proper, which is unusual. 
- This 3rd Sunday after Easter Jubilate echoes to the 3rd Sunday of Advent Gaudete and the 4th Sunday of Lent Laetare. |

- Do not confuse the words ad extremum with the well-known ad dexteram (Patris). - Avoid breathing at the quarter bar between Dominus and populum. - You might breathe between the last two alleluia. |

- The beginning of the verse is a bit tricky with this semitone interval EF, it happens at surrexit: EFGGF coming from C. - Little difficulty: to pitch correctly the major third GB (podatus) on redemit. |

C♯/D
- As a lot of propers in mode 2 with F clef it turns around two notes D and F, especially this typical sounding recitating note F. - Interesting sound on the torculus EFE at the end of vitam; E is not the mode 2 final but the melody is briefly suspended before going further. - The words et non dedit commoveri are built on a double similar pattern, it should reflect when you sing it. - If possible do not pause at the quarter bar between amovit and deprecationem and also between misericordiam and suam. - At the word suam it might be good to slightly lengthen the ictus note F to prepare reaching the top A. |

- Great fifth at the beginning of in jubilatione reaching the top C expressing shouts of joy, followed by a similar fifth on Dominus. 
- The in voce tubae possesses two porrectus. Normally the notes of neumes are sung together but here because of episemas and double notes instead of singing: AG-AG-CA-AFG-FDF it is easier to sing: AGA-GCAA-FGF-DF 
- The final Alleluia resonates the joyful echoes of Heaven down to the Earth (bottom C and D). 
- If you cannot do it in one breath, split the choir in two groups: those who breathe at the quarter bar and those who breathe at the end of "le" (just before "lu"). |

Singers with a basse voice will enjoy the descending scale to the bottom C on vultuum tuum Domine requiram and show authority: Lord I seek your face, your presence. - Coming back to the antiphon after the Gloria Patri: be careful at the semitone on B flat, it does not come naturally. |

Difficult piece, many jumps up and down make it tricky to sing.
For example look at the Regnavit Dominus: DC-ED-FG-ED-FE DC-EFD-D. Suggestion: keep alive in your head the sound of the bottom D note as it is the final of mode 1 and you frequently come back to it; if you are lost, it is a lighthouse. |

1) sometimes the "is" of cum eis can be heard as BG-ABA when it is actually AG-ABA. Possible explanation: it is tempting to repeat the descending BG from "e".  2) the sed ut serves going DFA-Bb seems to be a difficult path and I don't know why. So practice it many many times until you know it.  |

There is an octave DD between verses 4 and 5, between 5 and 6. There is a 5th DA between verses 6 and 7. There is an octave DD between verses 9 and 10. - All the verses end with "ium" with a dotted note so make it double and make the "um" vibrate and sound profound. - When you reach the final Amen you're happy it's finished, although you've enjoyed it, haven't you? - And don't forget the Alleluia in the end. |

- All the verses end on G, mode 7 final. Verses 1 to 18 have 3 lines (separated by a half bar). Verses 19 to 22 have 4 lines. Verses 23 to 24 have 5 lines. Verses have the same melody two by two (same melody for verses 1 and 2, verses 3 and 4, etc.), except 5+6 grouped together have the same melody as 7+8 (with little differences between 6 and 8 to accommodate the shorter lines); in other words: same melody for verses 5 and 7, and (pretty much) same melody for verses 6 and 8. My suggestion: if you sing alternatively the verses in two groups, make an exception here, first group sings 5+6 and second group 7+8. - Little difficulty: many verses start on top D, a 5th above G ending the previous verse, except for verses 19 and 20 which start on top C, a 4th above G; you might get caught starting on a 5th instead a 4th but you can quickly catch up with the descending pattern CBAG and then AFGG. - The peak of this sequence is verse 21:
- The four verses 21 to 24 actually compose the hymn "Ecce panis Angelorum" usually sung in honor of the Blessed Sacrament. It can be found on page 99 of the Parish Book of Chant. It is referenced in the Liber Usualis index as "Ecce panis" page 948. The melody will sound familiar to anyone who heard it during processions of the Blessed Sacrament. |

 2. Second trap: memorize the Bb at the end of Domine because it will be used for the "li" of libera, actually the descending DCBb like Mi-Re-Do becomes an ascending BbCD like Do-Re-Mi. It's tempting to start libera on ABbC (semitone-tone) instead of BbCD (tone-tone). Actually this error gives a totally different flavour to the melody, going down to some gloomy notes. The melody here was really meant to go up with a strong 'tone-tone' as a cry to the Lord, calling for liberation of one's soul (libera anima meam). |

 D/E♭
- When the singers start after the cantor / after the star (on the symbol ij.), there is a AGAGF where it is tempting to add an F and sing it like AGFAGF. - Salvum me fac is acrobatic, it goes up and down: down to D on "Sal" then up to F on "vum" reaching A then down again to F on "me". - Same acrobatic manoeuvre happens to the word persequentibus. - Be careful on the "mni" of the word omnibus: it starts after the torculus + porrectus of the "o"; the typography of "mni" makes people think that it starts earlier, on the porrectus. |

 D/E♭
- Try no to pause at the quarter bar after morte. - It is also tempting to lengthen the last note A of eos, but one should not and go straight to the next words in fame. - Careful at the verse and Gloria Patri: they have two notes D for the mediant. Compare with the classic fifth psalm tone in the Liber Usualis page 115. |

- A bit difficult to pitch the E at the beginning of "a" on the word via: think of heading towards the following F, which is a note you will come back often. - Watch out the B natural on "bit" of docebit. - If you make a little pause at the star after vias, it is possible to sing the remaining suas in one breath. |

- There is a tricky transition at the full bar after super vos: the word "et" before discite starts on a 4th DG not easy to pitch. My advice: sing the two first notes DG the same way you would start the double pattern mentioned above. |

GR327 GB1235 VPC107 |
 E/F
- This attitude of the sinner prostrated before God can be perceived through the recurrent note of F, mode 6 final. - The sinner's cry to God is lifted up to top C and above, when the man sees himself alone (unicus) and afflicted (pauper).  followed by « look at my humiliation » (vide humilitatem meam) expressed by the move from top C down to bottom C.  - Then the plea to forgive all his sins (dimitte omnia peccata mea) kneeling on the constant F note. - Interesting word omnia, in two parts: first the tristropha on "o" aknowledges the great amount of sins, then the clivis going down to bottom C on "mnia" and you can imagine the sinner bowing the head in contrition. - Finally the little jubilus on Deus meus, putting all his hope in « my God ».  - The introit continues, in psalm tone, with the same psalm 24 and the words one can hear on 1st Sunday of Advent: Ad te levavi animam meam, « To You, I lift up my soul, O Lord. In You, O my God, I trust; let me not be put to shame. » |

- Little difficulty on the words et nutriet: memorize the starting G because you frequently come back to it, G-ABCDC-G-AB-G-AEF-GG-DCD-G, etc. After all it is a mode 7, so you can expect the final G to happen a few times. - The tenor voices will enjoy the fifth CG (and a repeated G) on "num" of Dominum. - The basses will savour the bottom D on mihi followed by a double fourth DG and GC. |

1) The C clef is on the 3rd line from the top, not at the usual position (top line) for a mode 6. Also note that the final is C, very rare final for this mode. 2) Because the ear memorizes the CGBbD of Circuibo at first, then it is tempting to sing the same pattern at the beginning of in tabernaculo when actually it is CGCD. 3) Careful to the major third C-E or E-C happening a few times: both ways in et-i-mmolabo, drop of E-C in jubilati-onis and during the melism of "i" in dicam. 4) Finally, because the jubilationis ends on C, make a little pause to be sure to get the next note right, the A at the beginning of the word cantabo, a third down C-A. |

- Difficult transition from Domino to et ipse, after a half-bar: it is a major 3rd down and you will notice some people have difficulties to pitch it properly; we had to practice it a few times to be sure about it.

- Careful at meum prodeat, the B is not obvious to pitch. From the beginning all the B are flat but then we enter a zone of B natural starting with the one at the end of De vultu tuo. So here it comes a first time at meum, make it sound: AGA-CCCG-BAAG-G; then, without pausing on the last G of "um", attack frankly with a second B on the word prodeat: BCBAABA. Obviously it is not always easy to catch a B natural coming up from G. |

Basse voices will enjoy the bottom D. - Try to link the words Domini and Dei (big breath at the half bar). - Look at Quare, Domine and learn it by heart.

If you haven't practiced this part before, the probability is 90% you will fail, trust me. - The "ce" of parce is B, a semitone below C... right? - At the word memento: sing a 5th from G to D, it is tempting to sing a 4th to reach C instead. - The "et" of et Jacob is quite long, make sure you all agree on the duration and the finish before moving on. In other words: listen to each other or look at the choir director here more than ever. |

7 | LU1034 MV904 |
GR355 GB820 |
 D/E♭
- At the end of the word Alleluia it is important not to pause at the quarter-bar but make a smooth transition from A{B}CA to DEC (the {B} is the quilisma). Do the same smooth transition at the last quarter bar, on the word progenie. - At the word refugium: do not pause at the last note A of "refu" but go straight to "gium". - Tricky jump of a 4th between refugium and factus. - The words a generatione are probably the most difficult part of this proper: neumatic on "ge-ne-ra-ti", going up and down, then melismatic on "o". Very athletic in a way. Be careful after the three episemed notes ACB after the quarter bar: it does not go up on a 3rd but a simple climbing of notes CD before going down to AAG and so on. - The last words et progenie start on a major chord GBD and will find a minor chord ACE in the middle, after the half-bar. |

- At the beginning of the verse, the word "est" of Bonum est is interesting: very melismatic, going up and down with 3rd and 4th, frequently the same notes FAD and C. Not difficult but listen to each other to synchronize the jumps of 4th and 3rd. My suggestion: use the bottom F as a trampoline to gently bounce back to A, like this: DA-F(baam!)-AC. Also I tend to breathe not at the quarter bar but just before the tristropha. - Do not forget the "pi" on D at the word principibus. - The end is a classic ending for a gradual in mode 5. |

- Unlike the "mine" of Domine where it is double-simple-double-simple, the "..vum tu.." of servum tuum is double-simple-simple-double. - The Miserere mihi is a bit tricky, watch out the two torculus and then the transition to the second Domine. It's all up and down. |

 D/E♭
- Dominus too should be sung in one breath, no pause at the quarter bar. - The second magnus (from Rex magnus) is a perilous path. My advice is: when you sing the dotted D memorize it, because most of the following neumes start on this note (D.-CDECB-DCB-DEDC-D-DEC-DCBC.B.) and it should be alright. In doubt, practice it a lot. - The "o" of omnem is quite long and does not pause at the quarter bar, nor does it at the bottom G, but ends on the porrectus... actually you also have to finish the word omnem with the equally long "mnem"... - Also for the "mnem": pay attention at the quilisma, there are 3 notes ABC around the quilisma on B – I find difficult to pitch the B, a B flat would come naturally, so the idea is to keep the previous C in mind, lengthen the A before the quilisma and 'pull up' the pitch back to C, then continue. - Careful on catching the B at the beginning of terram; you can sing a major 3rd up from the bottom G but personnally I use this trick: I sing silently the C in my head and go down a semitone to have the B. - Curiousity: unlike other Alleluia propers, this one does not use the same patterns as the word Alleluia for the finishing words of the verse. |

Basically: this Sunday used to be called "1st Sunday after the Saint Michael" and the previous Sunday would start the festivities of Saint Michael. There is no more remain in the liturgy about the feast of Saint Michael after the Offertory Oravi was amputated of its verses but here it is in its full version: Oravi Deum meum ego Daniel, dicens : Exaudi, Domine, preces servi tui : illumina faciem tuam super sanctuarium tuum : * et propitius intende populum tuum, * super quem invocatum est nomen tuum, Deus. V. I Adhuc me loquente et orante et narrante peccata mea et delicta populi mei Israel * super quem invocatum est nomen tuum, Deus. V. II Audivi vocem dicentem mihi : Daniel, intellige verba, quæ loquor tibi, quia ego missus sum ad te. Nam et Michael venit in adjutorium meum. * Et propitius intende populum tuum * super quem invocatum est nomen tuum, Deus. Here is the manuscript. In old Latin they would write 'michahel' for Michael. You can find the restored melody by Solesmes page 107 in the 1935 Offertoriale book. |

Least to say it is a difficult piece. 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 second paratum notice the B flat followed by a minor 3rd down to G. - Then the word meum goes CA and it is tempting to sing CG instead, like the beginning of cor. - The word gloria is wonderful with this repeated 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 mea 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. |

- There are plenty of notes in the word Babylonis. Sing legato the syllables "by" and "lo", it will sound better. - It is not easy to pitch the A on "di" in the word sedimus: memorize the previous A on "se"; it is a lengthened note before the quilisma so it helps the memorizing. No time to breathe, the next difficulty is to come back to G quickly after descending the climacus AGF on "di". - The word recordaremur is a slow ascension with clear sounds e/o/a/e, but with a jump a 3rd in the end with a change of sonority: from the clear sound "re" to the more silent "mur". - Link the whole phrase dum recordaremur tui, Sion: in a choir, breathe at different moments so to make it sound like a continuous melody. |

 C♯/D
- If you sing the whole, I suggest you add again the phrase "De profundis clamavi ad te Domine" at the end after the two verses, for soundly closure. Total occurrences for this phrase: 3 times. No need to put anything between the two verses. - Translation from the Divinum Officium Website: 129:1 Out of the depths I have cried to thee, O Lord: Lord, hear my prayer. 129:2 Let thy ears be attentive to the voice of my supplication. 129:3 If thou, O Lord, wilt mark iniquities: Lord, who shall stand it. |
