Greetings all—
Here are our practice sources for this coming Sunday. Don’t forget about the “lookahead” section at the bottom; we have feast day after feast day (and two ordinations!) coming up.

Also: There is an Ordination this coming Saturday, May 18th at 10am. Please come sing if you are able. We will have a special rehearsal this coming Tuesday evening at 6:30pm in the organ loft to prepare.

We will use this Alleluia for all the upcoming feast days, so learn it well!

Time stamps are linked at the top of the page, as well as the video description.

Sequence:

Organ plays intro
Cantor sings refrain once
People & Choir respond once (with choir in parts)
Choir sings verse a cappella
People and Choir respond twice, before the Choir continues into the coda.

Also checkout the second video which has slowed down instrumental versions of the coda.

NB: the following recording is organ-only, but in the time stamps you can find “learning speed” (slowed down) solos of each voice part for the coda, which may be helpful to some of you.
