I would also be an interested in a link in general to chant mdoes for Magnificat and Benedictus, and also if anyone has links to CDs or tapes of various modes being sung, we are trying to learn from notation but would like to here it done “right”.
I also have a general question, is it common in LOTH for one mode or another to be used in various liturgical seasons, as we change Mass settings.
** is it common in LOTH for one mode or another to be used in various liturgical seasons, as we change Mass settings.**
At least, originally, the tone of the Magnificat and Benedictus (as for the Psalms and canticles) corresponded to the tone of the Antiphon sung with it.
Unfortunately, for the new LOH, even in Latin, there is simply not music for all the antiphons.
