Description:

The Second Vatican Council encouraged the Mass to be sung, according to the simple, beautiful and timeless melodies of the Roman Rite.  They are contained in the Missale Romanum of Pope Paul VI.  In the new Roman Missal in English (2010), we see the excellent adaption of these chants from the original Latin into the vernacular.

To coincide with the new English translation of the Missal, Solesmes has published a new book – Singing the Mass – containing all the chants of the Order of Mass in English and Latin on facing pages. Singing the Mass is for use by the people, and serves to encourage sung celebrations of the Vatican II Mass.
