Music Notes:


Please maintain Silence before and after every Mass. Church
documents require minimal instrument use, hence no Preludes
or Interludes or Postludes may be presented.


General Instruction of the Roman Missal # 45 (Mar 2003):
Sacred silence also, as part of the celebration, is to be
observed at the designated times. Its purpose, however,
depends on the time it occurs in each part of the celebration.
Thus within the Act of Penitence and again after the invitation
to pray, all recollect themselves; but at the conclusion of a
reading or the homily, all meditate briefly on what they have
heard; then after Communion, they praise and pray to God in
their hearts.


Even before the celebration itself, it is commendable that
silence to be observed in the church, in the sacristy, in
the vesting room, and in adjacent areas, so that all may
dispose themselves to carry out the sacred action in a
devout and fitting manner.


The Communion Antiphon (Graduale Romanum Chant Proper):
Scapulis suis obumbrabit tibi Dominus, et sub pennis eius
sperabis: scuto circumdabit te veritas eius (He will overshadow
you with his pinions, and you will find refuge under his wings.
His faithfulness will encompass you with a shield).
