INTRODUCTION

In order to discover which elements of the liturgy are bestadapted to the building of the people of God, the Constitutionon the Sacred Liturgy emphasizes the need for controlled experi..mentation during the period immediately before us. The Con..stitution also urges us to preserve the treasures of the past, espe..cially in the field of sacred music.

This setting of the English Propers is an effort to satisfyboth directives of the Constitution. Although it makes use ofthe Gregorian chant melodies traditionally heard in the Church,the principles for psalm recitation are those developed throughcenturies of experience by our English..speaking Christian brethrenof other faiths.

The simpler antiphonal chant melodies, found most often inthe divine office, have been adapted to various texts in the samemanner in which the authors of chant themselves adapted a singlemelody to serve several texts.

The psalmody used was devised for the English language withits peculiarities of accent. This system of psalmody can be usedwith any unrevised translation of the psalms.

In the interim period before the general revision of the liturgy,this book should prove useful, inspiring the faithful to a greaterlove of God through the liturgy and psalter, and providing someof the experience and experimentation necessary before a trulyeffective setting can be made for the English liturgy in a moredeveloped state.

7

USE OF THE PROPERSThe propers in this book are arranged to suit the needs of many situations.

They can be sung in any of the following ways:

1. as written - using the chant melodies for the antiphons and the corresponding psalm tones for the psalms.

2. as psalmody throughout - using any of the eight psalm tones for an entireselection. For this purpose, both antiphons and psalms are pointed.

3. harmonized throughout - using any of the harmonized settings publishedseparately on cards.

4. in any combination of the above.

Use of the Anglican system of pointing has made the latter three arrangementspossible. All cadences in this system are of uniform length and rhythmic structure. Sincecadences have been indicated in all the texts throughout the book, the texts may besung to any setting.

The melodies for unison tonal settings are based on the eight Gregorian psalm tones.Other arrangements are furnished for two equal, three equal, SAB, and SATB voices.All of these arrangements are printed on the card inserts for the propers.

The way in which the text should be sung depends on the ability of the choir andthe situation. For instance, singers who are unable to sing the melodies as given, mayprefer to sing the entire proper by following the pointing of the text, using a unison orharmonized tonal setting. Or, if the singers are well-prepared and optional verses areadded, alternation of the unison and harmonized versions of the psalm tones, togetherwith the period repetition of the antiphon melody (perhaps by the congregation) may beeffective:

AntiphonPsalm, v. 1, unIson

v. 2, harmonized

AntiphonPsalm, v. 3, unIson

v. 4, harmonized

Antiphonetc.

Glory be, unisonAs it was, harmonized

Care should be taken, wit~ such an arrangement, that the various musical elementsare all of corresponding modality.

I. THE MELODIESThe melodies are modeled after the original antiphonal chants as closely as possi

ble, according to the original rules for the adaptation of type and centonized melodies tonew texts. In some modes, these type melodies are practically nonexistent, and in these,

8

the spirit and melodic contours of the original chants have been retained. In other modes,the same type melody is found set to many different Latin texts; these melodies havebeen adapted with some frequency to English texts in these propers.

The importance of expressing the text, and of making the melodies a vehicle forthis expression, cannot be overemphasized. The accents of the text are the soul ofthe melodies; they should be given careful attention as the culmination points of thedynamic line, even when the accented syllable itself receives but a single note of melodywhile the following syllable has many more notes. The horizontal episema (-) below anote indicates that the notes should be slightly lengthened to punctuate or emphasizethe melodic and textural idea. Bar lines are guides to the proper phrasing of the music.

II. THE PSALM TONESThese are of uniform rhythmic structure, and are interchangeable; however, the tone

should correspond to the modality of the other elements of the musical entity.

IntonationsIntonations are melodic settings for the first two syllables of psalm verses. In gen

eral, intonations are used whenever the psalm verse is immediately preceded by achanted melody, antiphon, respond, or alleluia. Intonations may also be used after harmonized verses or throughout a psalm for greater solemnity. Otherwise, the text maybegin on the recitation note of the psalm setting.

Reciting TonesThe prolonged notes between the intonation and the mediant cadence, and between

the mediant cadence and the final cadence, indicate the reciting tone or tones. The syllables of the text should move along at a brisk but decorous speed, care being taken tobring the accents of the text into prominence, and to make the meaning as intelligibleas possible to the entire congregation. Note that the reciting tone for the second halfof each verse is the same as the final note of the mediant cadence.

CadencesThese are measured cadences. The mediant cadence consists of three notes, the ac

cents falling on the first and third notes. The final cadence consists of five notes, theaccents falling on the first, third, and fifth notes.

The beginning of the mediant cadence is indicated in the text by a single verticalline: I . The end of the mediant cadence is indicated by a double vertical line: II . Acomma above the text ' indicates a pause, or slight prolonging of the preceding syllable.

The pointing in the antiphon texts beneath chant melodies occasionally indicatestwo or three complete repetitions of the psalm tones. In this case, a vertical dotted line( : ) indicates the end of one verse and the beginning· of the next.

The accents of the text are adapted to the melodic structure of the cadences byfollowing these rules:

1. Capitalized syllables are sung to two notes of the cadence:

J J JJ Jdis- I tress and SOR - row.

9

REV. PAUL ARBOGAST, EditorSaint Mary's Cathedral, Covington, KentuckyFaculty Member of Saint Joseph's

Summer School of Liturgical Music

2. Italicized syllables are sung to the same note of the cadence. Thus the singlequarter note is divided into two eighth notes. This should be done smoothly,without excessive angularity.

J )1)1 JIwork of your hands

3. If the mediant cadence has four syllables instead of three, and none are underlined, the final note of the mediant cadence is repeated, both notes remain quarter

notes. J J J JI con - so - la - tion

These basic rules apply to the harmonized psalm tones as well as those in unison.Although some of the traditional harmonizations are printed in doubled time values forthe singers' convenience, their actual recitation should move at the same general speedas the unison tones.

III. OPTIONAL PSALM VERSES, REPETITIONS, ETC.The Introit (Entrance Song), Offertory (Offertory Song), and Communion (Com

munion Song) and traditionally processional chants, intended to accompany the entranceprocession, the offertory procession, and the communion procession. They are "antiphonal" chants, consisting essentially of the singing of a psalm, two groups of singersalternately singing the verses. To the psalm itself is added the antiphon, a kind of recurring theme-song, which is sung at the beginning and at the end of the psalm, andmay be inserted periodically between the verses. Since it is permissable and desirable torestore the psalm more fully in these processional chants, several optional verses havebeen added to the Introit, in addition to the one verse and the "Glory be to the Father"that are now required by the rubrics. These may be sung to make the Entrance Songmore truly a processional chant.

Similarly, a number of psalms have been given in the appendix that are consideredliturgically appropriate for the communion procession. One of these, the psalm for theIntroit of the day, or the psalm from which the communion antiphon is taken may beused together with the communion antiphon to expand it into a processional chant. Asimilar procedure may be followed at the Offertory.

The Gradual, Tract, and Alleluia (Meditation Song) are not processional chants,but rather a meditative interlude between the readings. The Gradual, Responsory, andAlleluia are "responsorial" chants, in which the group repeats an identical refrain (Respond or Alleluia) after each verse sung by the soloist. Only one verse now remains foreach responsory. The Respond, however, may and should be repeated at the end of theverse of the Gradual, as is indicated.

The Alleluia melodies may be used interchangeably. The complete list appears inAppendix II. In addition to these Allulias, an Alleluia from the Graduale or LiberUsualis may be used if desired. The mode of the Alleluia should correspond to the modeof the psalm tone used for its verse, as well as to the mode of the Gradual Respond preceding it.
