Publisher's Synopsis
This is a major revision of The Anglican Use Gradual, 2007 which follows
the structure of the Graduale Romanum and draws upon the musicological
work of Dr. Palmer (G.H.P.), Francis Burgess (F.B.), and Winfred
Douglas (W.D.). Since The Plainchant Gradual of Palmer and Burgess
is again available in a reprint, I have eliminated most of the occasional
melismatic chants and have included simple psalm tone chants based on
Burgess' The English Gradual in order to provide a practical book that can
be used in most churches. This expanded volume follows the structure
and text of Divine Worship: The Missal, 2015, and covers all of the minor
propers called for in that Missal. An index is included to adapt this book
to the Ordinary Time lectionary sequence.
