The 1961 Graduale Romanum is online at the CMAA. A magnificent resource! Please say a prayer for those involved.

My parish is using it! Well, the Indult Mass community at my parish, anyway 😃 The Schola “went live,” as it were, for last Sunday’s Mass. The propers for the feast of Christ, the King of the Universe were VERY well received by the parishioners.

One of the neat things about CMAA’s offering is that there’s an index of the 1974 Gradual included. So for those of you choir directors who have been reluctant to implement the musical Reform of the Reform in your parishes because of a lack of funds (while I think that the brothers at Solesmes need our financial support, the graduals ARE fairly expensive)… just click, print, and distribute the Chant on a need-to-use basis.

Vexilla regis prodeunt! 😃
 
OMG!
Gradulae Romanum!
I was looking for this last year, for my music assessment!!!
Why didn’t anyone pick this up before?
AARGH!

But it’s 64mb… I only have a 200 mb download limit, and I’m already at i guess 300%… not good, parents will skin me alive…

And that chant editing software… has anyone tried it?
 
OMG…

The entire thing is in Latin.
Not just the chants, the chants I want in latin, but the ENTIRE THING?

Does anybody have any idea as to how I can translate this?

What do you want to know?

As regards the earlier question: yes, I tried out Gregoire in the summer for some hymns of the breviary- but one thing: it is NOT free! You have to make a donation to a charity if you want to keep it.

There’s a million page long preface at the beginning of the graduale, i want to know what it says.
And also, a translation of all the chants would be nice, so i know wht i’m singing (even though i don’t think an approved translation of the graduale exists…)
But i can live without a translation of the psalms.

And the software isn’t free?
They lie then. They said it was free…
And i was under the impression that you could have it in english… Bloody french. Lowest mass attendance, yet they can’t even translate a program into a better language…

It is free in the sense that they don’t put a barrier on you downloading it- they trust that you’re honest enough. I think you can use it for a month or week or something anyway if you don’t want to donate immediately to any charity.

For English,you have to set the program to it. Go to edit–> options —> and under language pick English. It will translate most of it. If you noticed they did say they wer elooking for people to translate for them

If you want to understand the propers a handy English-Latin Missal will work. I’ve got one typed out with a rotten English translation and one with a half finished Sanctorale though much better English translation that I can send to you.

The one I felt was the most important was the De Ritibus which gives instructions pertaining to the Mass and how/when the chants are to be sung. I’ll work on doing that but not the neume interpretation!😛 The Decrees at the beginning merely confirm that it is the typical edition, etc,. etc.

I did notice. That’s why I thought that it was only in French.

So most of the stuff I was winging about was decrees useless to the common layman who just wants to chant a mass to himself since he is probably not allowed to do it in his own parish?
I have i think my grandmother’s St Joseph Missal lying around somewhere…
I didn’t think of that, very handy…

You can translate it yourself? You know fluent latin?
Do you mind sending it to me when you have completed it?
Pretty please?
Don’t worry about the neume interpretation, I can read neumes.
