Dear Fellow Parishioners,

In the coming weeks we will be introducing “new” musical settings of the Ordinary of Mass for use

at the 8 & 10 o’clock Sunday Masses. After careful consideration, I have chosen chants from two well-known

Masses published in the Gregorian Missal: Vatican Mass VIII (Missa de Angelis) and Mass XI (Missa Orbis

Factor). The council of Vatican II reaffirms that, “The Church acknowledges Gregorian Chant as distinctive

of the Roman liturgy; therefore, other things being equal, it should be given pride of place in liturgical

services” (Sacrosanctum Concilium, §116). In an attempt to implicate authentic renewal of Sacred Music at

our parish, and to follow the directive of Vatican II to enable the faithful, “To say or to sing together in Latin

those parts of the Ordinary of the Mass belonging to them” (SC §54), the Parish Choir will assist you in

becoming familiar with these ancient musical treasures by performing them before Mass. In addition to this,

worship-aids for use at Mass have been placed in the pews to ease the transition. Pope Pius X, in his motu

proprio on Sacred Music, describes Gregorian Chant as the “supreme model” for all other sacred music to

emulate. With this in mind, we endeavor to reintroduce this magnificent and beautiful music back into its

rightful place in the liturgy.

When this reform is accomplished, our beloved Parish will be an exemplary model of the Catholic

Church’s living liturgical tradition. Our community will be a paradigm of how to incorporate our ancient and

unique liturgical traditions while embracing what is new. We will continue to lift our voices to God as one in

the singing of our favorite hymns and spiritual songs at Mass. I look forward to the changes to come, and to

rediscovering the riches of our Church’s musical heritage with you.

Many Blessings,

Andrew N. Barnick

Organist & Choirmaster

the Schola Cantorum Franciscana of Franciscan

College, Latrobe, PA and the Academy Chamber

Orchestra of Pittsburgh.

The centerpiece of the program is twentieth century

English composer Ralph Vaughan Williams’ power-

ful and poignant Dona Nobis Pacem. The work is a

dramatic plea for peace, composed in 1936 as the

world began to slip into a Second World War.

Vaughan Williams, a combat veteran of the First

World War, drew upon the Ordinary of the Mass, Ho-

ly Scripture, and the poetry of Walt Whitman (a vet-

eran of the American Civil War) for the text of the

rarely-performed cantata. The concert will also fea-

ture Franz Schubert’s popular Mass no. 2 in G major.

Admission is free, and the program will also be given

at St. Vincent Archabbey on Saturday, Novermber 14

at 7:30 p.m.

For more information, contact Prof. Nicholas Will at
