I have similar questions. Looking forward to the answer! Also, does the composer just get paid a lump fee, or does he/she collect something like royalties? If this can’t be answered in short without diverting attention to the thread’s subject, maybe another can be started.
I had to pay OCP a fee to use one of their songs in Spanish as well as the Spanish version of the Responsorial psalm. The fee included permission to reprint the psalm and the song in the little worship aids I did for my cousin’s wedding.

Don’t you just love the little things we have to do to stay compliant? :rolleyes:
 
I sent in an application for “Permission to reproduce mechanical work” to OCP with a list of nearly 200 accompaniment songs. It would have been 9 cents per song. Their reply was that since I was putting them onto my iPod I did not need to pay them. I assume the fees are the same for printing out the sheet music for a Response. I think if you only print out words you don’t have to obtain a liscense; only if you include the notes on a staff. That’s why I never reprint a Response for the Congregation. I just sing it a few times with them before Mass and they sing very well.
Here’s OCP’s link for liscensing:

Since I’m in hijack mode I ask something of you all:
Please pray for my Mother-in-law. Last week on her 80th birthday she suffered a massive stroke. She is unresponsive. We pray that this incredibly sweet lady will not slip away from us. We ask our Heavenly Father to let us keep her a little while longer.
Peace to all,
Terry

Unless the text is specific to the bible, I’m pretty certain you have to get a license for text as well.

Will certainly keep her in my prayers.

To get back to the topic of the thread:

July 24/25, 2010 - 17th Sunday of Ordinary Time

Gathering: Praise To The Lord, The Almighty
Preparation: All That We Have
Communion: I Have Loved You
Closing: Joyful, Joyful, We Adore You
 
Here is the list I got from our pianist for this Sunday, July 25:

Entrance: Abba Father MI: 566
Offertory: Christ before us MI: 525
Communion: Loving and forgiving MI: 678 or The supper of the Lord MI: 338
Recessional: God’s Love is Everlasting MI: 631

In readying this thread we don’t usually find out what everyone is signing for the parts of the mass such as the Sanctus and Angus Dei. Our group has been singing the Mass of God’s Promise in recent weeks.

Does you parish usually recite the Gloria or do you sing it? For us, its only usually sung during Easter and Christmas.

My parish is using the St. Louis Jesuits Mass for the Sanctus, Memorial Acclamation, and Great Amen, unfortunately. The Agnus Dei is from the Good Shephered Mass and is faithful to the text.

The Gloria is sung at my parish right now. I think it’s on of many Spanish Gloria’s (which we sing the English transfer). We always sing the Gloria at my parish nowadays, never recite it.

Reading his music packet, starting on Assumption Sunday, we are going to be using the Melodic Gloria, and the Mass parts will come from Mass of Creation. :eek:

If I would suggest Mass settings, I would probably use the Heritage Mass Gloria and then use Heritage Mass for the Sanctus, Memorial Acclamation, Great Amen, and Agnus Dei.

Oh, Justin, I see that your parish uses “Christ Before Us” quite often. How does the congregation seem to like it?

Actually, the best setting is Richard Proulx’s A Community Mass. It is faithful to the text and can be sung acapella. The Gloria for “A New Mass with a Congregation” is also very easy to sing and, like the Proulx setting, a straight-through piece.

I am very leery about the Glorias for Spanish-language Masses, especially the ones by OCP because they chop chunks off of the prayer. These are ilicit.
 
Please refrain from debating the merits/demerits of hymns/songs in this thread. Please stick to the OP’s intention in posting this thread. Thank you all.
 
This is what i selected for this weekend July 25th

Entrance- # 852 I Rejoiced When i Heard them Say
Offertory- God So Loved the World by John Stainer (choir only) :)😃
Communion- # 757 My Shepherd Will Supply My Need
Recessional- # 914 Alleluia! Sing to Jesus!
 
We change the mass parts every season, for ordinary time we Mass of Creation–Not my favorite

After my mini-vacation in September, I’ll probably use the Sing Praise & Thanksgiving Mass for a little while.

A few years ago, I switched Mass of Creation to Advent and Lent specifically because I did not like it as well and I thought it fit with Penitence (my own private joke). Now we are phasing it out with Jubilate Deo during these seasons. I am sure there are others that view this as a penance. 😃
 
Opening: Now is the time (great Scott Joplin type piano riffs)
Response: Ps 168 Lord, on the day I called for help
Offertory: Earthen Vessels
Holy, Mem Acc: Ferrell mass of Hope
Lamb of God: Owlaski
Lord’s prayer: our own
Communion: Come to the feast
Closing: O bless the Lord

Is it true that the Gloria should be ommited if not sung? We always sing it except during Advent or Lent.

peace,
Terry

No. That only applies to the Alleluia/Lenten acclamation. That direction is found in the General Introduction to the Lectionary. The Gloria is only omitted during Advent and Lent. However, there are solemnities that fall during that time such as the Immaculate Conception and Our Lady of Guadalupe (Advent) and the Annunciation and St. Joseph (Lent) where the Gloria is sung/recited.

ok. thanks. So it can be recited?
 
I had a hard time finding songs appropriate to the readings that we knew. This is what I picked

Holy, Holy, Holy
Lord of All Hopefulness
We Come to Your Feast
You Are Mine
To Jesus Christ Our Sovreign King
 
This is what I suggest for next weekend:

Sunday, August 1, 2010 - Eighteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time - Year C

Processional Hymn: #569 Come, Christians, Join to Sing MADRID
Preparation of the Gifts: #534 Age to Age Vogt
Communion Hymn: #540 I Want to Walk as a Child of the Light HOUSTON
Recessional Hymn: #742 Rejoice, the Lord is King DARWALL’S 148TH

This is what my music director has planned for next weekend:

Processional Hymn: #844 Invitatory: Psalm 95 Joncas
Preparation of the Gifts: #534 Vogt
Communion Hymn: #391 These Alone are Enough Schutte
Recessional Hymn: #375 Sent Forth by God’s Blessing ASH GROVE
 
Here are my pics for the 18th Sunday of the year.

O God, Our help in ages past
In Every Age
I received the living God. I use this one quite often but I think it especially fits this Sundays Communion Antiphon.
Lead Me, Lord
 
Does anyone use the communion antiphon from the gradual or something similar either instead of or in conjunction with a communion hymn?
