I finally was able to record/make videos of the music for our first Mass that I couldn't find online, so ALL of the music for October 28th is posted in the Practice Resources section. As a disclaimer, the pieces I recorded are for teaching/educational purposes--I certainly am not a perfect singer--but I hope they will be helpful to hear a clearer melody. All of the text is also posted in the videos I created.

The pieces we will be singing for October 28 are as follows:
(Red = Mass Part; Blue = Motet; Green = Proper)

Introit
(Opening Hymn)
Kyrie: Missa de Angelis
Gloria: Missa De Angelis
Responsorial Psalm
Alleluia: Mass of St. Cecilia
(Offertory Hymn)
Sanctus: Missa de Angelis
Mysterium Fidei: Mass of St. Cecilia
Amen: Mass of St. Cecilia
Agnus Dei: Missa de Angelis

Communio
If Ye Love Me: Tallis
(Closing Hymn)

I know it might look like a LOT of music, but as you can tell, most of it is the Ordinary of the Mass, the Mass parts, which will be consistent throughout all of our Masses. However, the Missa de Angelis is new for our choir, and the Mass of St. Cecilia will likely be new to children who just joined choir this year.... Once we get those Mass parts under our belt, it will free up a lot of rehearsal time!

Thanks, and happy practicing!
