Gloria and Creed Omitted at Sunday's Mass

[ProVobis]

Since the previous poster said they skipped the Creed altogether and did the Gloria twice.

Let me clarify. The Spanish Mass usually has its own sung version of the Gloria, usually with refrains. The Gloria text isn’t repeated in any form. I don’t know much Spanish but I can usually follow along in the Missalette or Latin-Spanish printout. There are other parts which seem to be routinely skipped but for the moment we’re talking about the Gloria and Creed.

 

[Phemie]

Did you mean to say, “…the Cardinal…will sometimes recite the* Creed*…?”-- Since the previous poster said they skipped the Creed altogether and did the Gloria twice.

They don’t do the Gloria twice, “they redo the Gloria” means they sing a Gloria-like song instead of the proper Gloria (many French Canadian parishes do that too). Since that’s unacceptable, the Cardinal opts to recite the Gloria after they’ve finished singing. You’d think they’d get the hint.

Whatever happened to Jubilate Deo?

Pope Paul VI gave permission for the selections in Jubilate Deo to be freely reprinted. The booklet was accompanied by a letter in which the Holy Father made this request of the bishops:

“Would you therefore, in collaboration with the competent diocesan and national agencies for the liturgy, sacred music and catechetics, decide on the best ways of teaching the faithful the Latin chants of Jubilate Deo and of having them sing them…. You will thus be performing a new service for the Church in the domain of liturgical renewal” (Voluntati Obsequens).

Jubilate Deo contains simple chant settings in Latin of the parts of the Ordinary of the Mass: Kyrie, Gloria, Credo, Sanctus, Memorial Acclamation, Agnus Dei. It also provides musical settings for the dialogues between priest and people, such as before the Preface, and the Ite Missa est, the response to the Prayer of the Faithful, and others.

An, expanded edition of Jubilate Deo was later issued by the Congregation for Divine Worship in 1987.

Unfortunately, the faithful were not taught these chants, and it is rare to hear any music from this collection sung in parishes today.

It has been fully implemented. I could tell by the bongo drums at last Sunday’s Mass

We tried for years, but it was a strange mishmash of chants that we were generally unfamiliar with outside the booklet. In the end, we settled on chanting parts of the Missa de Angelis occasionally instead, because everyone is relatively familiar with that.
