A simple English Mass for your parish
The transition to sacred music in most parishes needs to come slowly and simply, with easy settings that are quick to teach and learn, mostly in English. The idea here is to prepare the way for more complex settings in Latin later on. At the outset, however, vernacular plainsong can be wonderful, especially for parishes that are looking for periods of quiet reflection, using voice only settings that require no instruments.
This setting of Ambrosian chant was adapted for use at the 2008 Sacred Music Colloquium in Chicago. Feel free to print and use in your parish.
