A new board book with electronic keyboard from Pueri Publications Available in Australia from Parousia Media: https://store.parousiamedia.com/childrens-first-chants-pueri-publications/ For more information and bulk orders: https://pueripublications.com/

Someone asked where to find the book, so I have made it available: https://shop.jubil.us/product/officium-beatae-mariae-virginis-pro-cantu-editum/ (Does that count as a paid promotion?) or download a PDF from my blog: https://littleoffice.brandt.id.au/2022/03/04/dominican-little-office/

There are three collects for Terce - a general one for the time from February 2 to before Advent starts which I use in this video and one for Advent and one for Christmastide through to February 2. I'll make separate videos using the other collects - the question is whether to release them now, or schedule them for closer to Advent and Christmas - leave a comment. https://littleoffice.brandt.id.au/2022/03/04/dominican-little-office/

Here's the updated (1632) Vespers Hymn for the feast of the Epiphany. It's taken from the longer hymn **A solis ortus cardine** which has a verse beginning with each letter of the alphabet. Unfortunately the update changes the first letter, which kinda defeats the purpose, but the Humanists thought it better that way. Compare and contrast: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DaazB4g9xXM 1. Crudelis Herodes, deum Regem venire quid times? Non eripit mortalia, Qui regna dat caelestia. 2. Ibant magi, quam viderant, Stellam sequentes praeviam: Lumen requirunt lumine, Deum fatentur munere. 3. Lavacra puri gurgitis Caelestis Agnus attigit; Peccata, quae non detulit, Nos abluendo sustulit. 4. Novum genus potentiae, Aquae rubescunt hydriae, Vinumque jussa fundere Mutavit unda originem. 5. Jesu, tibi sit Gloria, Qui apparuisti gentibus, Cum Patre et almo Spiritu In sempiterna saecula. Amen. English: WHY, impious Herod, vainly fear that Christ the Saviour cometh here? He takes no earthly realms away Who gives the crown that lasts for aye. To greet His birth the Wise Men went, led by the star before them sent; called on by light, towards Light they pressed, and by their gifts their God confessed. In holy Jordan's purest wave the heavenly Lamb vouchsafed to lave; That He, to whom was sin unknown, might cleanse His people from their own. New miracle of power divine! The water reddens into wine: He spake the word: and poured the wave in other streams than nature gave. All glory, Lord, to Thee we pay for Thine Epiphany today; all glory as is ever meet, to Father and to Paraclete. Amen. Translation by John Mason Neale

Here's the old Vespers Hymn for the feast of the Epiphany. It's taken from the longer hymn *A solis ortus cardine* which has a verse beginning with each letter of the alphabet. I'm singing this as written in the Antiphonale Monasticum (Benedictine). The words were "updated" in 1632 and that's where the slightly different version in the Liber Usualis comes from and I'll upload that version next. 1. Hostis Herodes impie, Christum venire quid times? Non eripit mortalia, Qui regna dat caelestia. 2. Ibant magi, quam viderant, Stellam sequentes praeviam: Lumen requirunt lumine, Deum fatentur munere. 3. Lavacra puri gurgitis Caelestis Agnus attigit; Peccata, quae non detulit, Nos abluendo sustulit. 4. Novum genus potentiae, Aquae rubescunt hydriae, Vinumque iussa fundere Mutavit unda originem. 5. Gloria tibi, Domine, Qui apparuisti hodie, Cum Patre et Sancto Spiritu In sempiterna saecula. Amen. English: WHY, impious Herod, vainly fear that Christ the Saviour cometh here? He takes no earthly realms away Who gives the crown that lasts for aye. To greet His birth the Wise Men went, led by the star before them sent; called on by light, towards Light they pressed, and by their gifts their God confessed. In holy Jordan's purest wave the heavenly Lamb vouchsafed to lave; That He, to whom was sin unknown, might cleanse His people from their own. New miracle of power divine! The water reddens into wine: He spake the word: and poured the wave in other streams than nature gave. All glory, Lord, to Thee we pay for Thine Epiphany today; all glory as is ever meet, to Father and to Paraclete. Amen. Translation by John Mason Neale

Quick book review while I'm cooking dinner. That last shot has the cabbage in as well, so you can't really see the caramelised onion.

Someone wanted to know which version we knew, so here it is. Great little Advent hymn. Or Christmas. Or just sing it because it's pretty. It's transposed down a little because we are still recovering from colds.

Following the plan described here: https://www.kidschant.com/post/december-camp/ Further Videos : Side scrolling chant videos: * Introit sung by the Schola of the Vienna Hofburgkapelle: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9wM4Rd88sNA * Alleluia from the Benedictine Monks of Santo Domingo de Silos: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AckG5Q2R5nw * Communio by the Choir of Monks of the Abbey of Saint-Pierre de Solesmes: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_lyOZNdMw8Q Other chant videos: Introit sung by Jeff Ostrowski: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UO5cVEzk4F0 Communio sung by CantArte, Regensberg: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oi52_1Df0ug Communio - sounds like the Brazilian monks used to be on the Christus Rex website back when the 'net was young with Organ backing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FkHGU1oNjxU
