EcceVirgo practice sheet


* We plan to sing this on 4 Advent, Prep of Gifts. 7 am at St. Joe
* Antiphon from Graduale Triplex
* Psalm verses from Lectionary, to match Graduale
* I'm not sure if I like the verses, they seem too busy. But, the notation suggests that the antiphon is pretty slow and stretched-out, so it might be ok if we sing the verses the same way.
* St. Gall notation over "eius" seems to be missing a note that we sing from the square notation.
* Gloria Patri: I changed DO from top line to third line down. The relationships are the same. That makes syllables center on DO. I have beginning readers, and this will help them learn better. Also, as per Dom Turco, it's probably more authentic anyway. (apologies to Guido)
