Since the reform of the Latin Rite in the 1960's, the use of a three-year cycle for the Eucharistic Lectionary has necessitated a reorganization of the minor propers of the Mass. The Graduale Romanum published by Solesmes in 1979 has provided the Latin chant for the Mass, but there has existed no English version.

2 The great work of the Rev. G. H. Palmer and Francis Burgess, early in the last century, to provide plainchant settings for the music of the liturgy, endowed the English-speaking world with a rich corpus of chant. It is to be lamented that the Catholic Church did not draw on this heritage when the Mass began to be celebrated in the vernacular. The insistence on modernized English made this impossible. At the same time, the An- glican Communion was engaged in its own liturgical upheaval, and in America the traditional Book of Common Prayer was replaced by a liturgy using more modern English. The Coverdale Psalter of the Prayerbook was replaced with a modern English Psalter.

3 This has all led to the desuetude of The Plainchant GRADUAL of Palmer and Burgess and The English GRADUAL of Francis Burgess. Nevertheless, the Pastoral Provision for Anglicans in the Roman Catholic Church and the many traditionalist churches that use the ANGLICAN liturgy have re-awakened the need for a revision of the GRADUAL in English. The present work follows the structure of the Graduale Romanum and draws upon and occasionally incorporates the musicological work of Dr. Palmer ( ), Francis Burgess ( ), and Winfred Douglas ( ). This first edition gives the simpler chants in order to provide a practical book that can be used in most churches.

4 Occasionally the ancient melo- dies adapted by Palmer are given as well. The American GRADUAL , edited by Bruce Ford, gives the more complex traditional melodies set to the 1979. Psalter text. While this work is intended for the ANGLICAN Use in the Catholic Church, it is hoped that it will prove useful to Anglicans and to Catholics as well. CONTENTS. Season of Advent 5.
