That's definitely my favorite. I often find myself singing it. I was singing it at FOCUD conference after adoration and one of the missionaries was next to me listening in. : My other favorite Veni Veni Emmanuel, but I only get to sing that during Advent. I have one called Tranquility that has the Holy Week liturgy. I'd like to get the CD called Chant for all seasons.

Seriously check out some Byzantine Chant after familiarizing yourself with Gregorian.

I think that's done by Masters of Chant.

Christendom College sent a CD with it's Christmas cards. They just finished recording the Easter one. I hope they send it at Easter.



P.S. Please pray for me if you have a moment, I applied to Southern Catholic College BUT I also applied for a scholarship to start a chant choir there. I'm only 17. Now I'm wondering why the heck I volunteered myself (if it actually happens.)

I would like to learn how to Chant the Rosary. I know the Pater Noster and I just downloaded the Ave Maria. Does anyone know if I can find melodies for the rest of the prayers? I have the text, but not the music, if there is any.

That's absolutely amazing too. For me, it's actually easier to pray with.

Medieval chant is pretty cool, too. I just bought a CD yesterday by a group called "Anonymous 4", and it's four women (who are both singers and historians) chanting various pieces written in a document called the [i]Codex Calixtinus[/i] (~12th century AD) in honor of the apostle St. James the Great. It's absolutely beautiful, and even the English translations provided in the text are beautiful as well.

[quote][i]Alleluia: Gratulemur et Letemur[/i]
Alleluia.
We give thanks with most joyful praise.
Happily and merrily Spain rejoices.

Dear and glorious James shines in victory,
who today rose up, crowned with celestial glory.

James of the Zebedee and his blessed brother John
were called by the savior on the sea of Galilee.
They diligently spread to everyone
their faith in the Holy Trinity,
preaching the true word in Judea.

James, strong in grace, gave witness to the law;
he shows Christ to all ages
and to every part of the world.

The incarnation of the Messiah and his deah under Pilate
was the apostle's holy word.
And Christ's resurrection and miraculous ascension
was his greatest sermon.

He spoke forth of the greatness of God and the prophets,
giving his own testimony,
and the prophets of David were his music;
he declared all these things quite openly.

Then he performed great miracles,
magnificent and wondrous,
the athlete of Christ cast out evil demons
resplendent with divine grace.
He was martyred under Herod's
evil rule,
for the highest king's son he became immortal;
now he rejoices in glory.

His burial sod has been removed
from his homeland in Jerusalem
into Galicia, where now
he performs divine miracles.
The sick pray [at] his sarcophagus
that they may regain their health.
All peoples, tongues and tribes go there
crying out: Come along!  [i]Ultreia[/i]!

And they bring different gift-offerings
confessing their own crimes.

You were called Boanerges:
son of thunder;
as your name was changed,
so change the evil in us.
You who on Mount Tabor
saw the son of God transfigured,
make us see Jesus
in eternal glory.

O James, [i]christicola[/i], protect your people
so that with Christ and you we may rejoice forever.

Amen.

-[i]Prosa for St. James with Latin, Greek and Hebrew words, edited by his excellency Pope Calixtus[/i][/quote]
