Music Notes:


The Communion Antiphon (Graduale Romanum Chant Proper): Signa eos qui in me credunt, haec sequentur; daemonia eicient; super aegros manus imponent, et bene habebunt; alleluia (These signs will accompany those who believe; they will cast out demons, and when they lay their hands upon the sick, these will recover, alleluia).


Andrew Moore (1954-) was born in Hayes, Greater London, England. At the Royal Academy of Music in London he studied violin and organ and also took the advanced orchestral conducting course. He was ordained a priest in 1982 as a member of the Benedictine community at Downside Abbey having obtained a degree in theology at Cambridge University (Christ’s College). At Downside he taught music and religious studies and was a Housemaster and Bursar. As monastic and school choirmaster for many years he helped to maintain a high standard of liturgical music. From 1993-95 he was parish priest at the Downside Parish of Little Malvern, the church where Elgar lies buried. In 1996 he stepped aside from monastic life for a more active ministry in the Diocese of Portsmouth as a parish priest (St Francis Ascot, Sacred Heart Lambourn, Our Lady of Lourdes Hungerford). He has composed mass settings, responsorial psalms, motets, anthems and carols, a song cycle and many other songs, chamber and orchestral music.
