Mass XVII - for Sundays in Lent and Advent
"Lord, have mercy on us... grant us peace."

Mass XVII is the Gregorian chant setting of the Ordinary prescribed for Sundays in the seasons of Advent and Lent and - depending on which book you are using - there are 3 different Kyrie melodies that can be used. In this recording I have chosen Kyrie A (in the Liber Usualis and older Graduales; in the 1974 Graduale Romanum it is listed as Kyrie B) which is a 15th-17th century adaptation of its older version from the 10th century (labeled Kyrie A in the 1974 GR and is not found in the Liber Usualis or older Graduale Romanums). The third Kyrie, labeled Kyrie C in all the books, is from the 14th century and has a slightly brighter sound to it and therefore, in my personal opinion and preference, I save this version for Advent and use the more somber sound of Kyries A or B for Lent.

Mass XVII - for Sundays in Lent and Advent

"Te Joseph Celebrant" is a Gregorian Chant hymn of the Catholic Church to St Joseph (Terror of demons), traditionally sung at Vespers on two of St Joseph's feast days: March 19, feast of St Joseph, Spouse of the Blessed Virgin Mary; and, more recently, May 1, feast of St Joseph the Worker.  English lyrics of this song are posted down below. Special thanks to my "anonymous" schola members.
