New Liturgical Settings
O sacrum convivium
- Colin Brumby
A beautiful setting of St. Thomas Aquinas' classic Eucharistic-themed prayer.
Effectively alternates between a simple congregational refrain and SATB verses in the style typical of the Sistine Chapel Choir.
Palm Sunday Processional
- Johannes Somary
This great addition to your Palm Sunday repertoire is a convenient way to use the approved texts for the Palm Sunday procession.
Features easy-to-sing modal music for both congregation and cantor or unison choir, accompanied by organ.
I Know That My Redeemer Lives
- Gary Penkala
A versatile funeral setting that can be sung by cantor and congregation or as a simple unison anthem for choir.
The chant-based refrain makes this an easy way to incorporate a chant melody into a funeral, even for a funeral choir without much rehearsal time!
New Choral Works
Attende Domine
- arr. John Osterhagen
An impressive a cappella Lenten motet for soloist and SATB choir.
The familiar text and chant melody make this particularly effective as a processional or meditation for a Lenten Penitential Service.
Crucifixus
- Glenn Wonacott
Voiced for a cappella SATB choir and featuring the text from the Nicene Creed, this motet is ideal for use on Good Friday, as well as throughout Lent.
Learn it early in Lent and sing it often!
New Hymn Setting
Christ Is Made the Sure Foundation
- arr. Alan Smith
A majestic, yet not overly difficult setting of the tune Westminster Abbey to the classic text.
Scored for SATB choir, congregation, organ, brass and timpani, this powerful hymn arrangement will lend majesty to the opening of the anniversary of the dedication of your own church building.
New Handbell Setting
What Wondrous Love Is This?
- arr. Adam Taylor
Finding good Lenten handbell repertoire is difficult at best, as any Catholic handbell director knows well.
If you have experienced this problem, then this excellent addition for 3-octave handbells is the answer you have been looking for!
New Organ Setting

- Glenn Caluda
This meditation for flute and organ, based on the Kyrie melody from Missa VIII (de Angelis) makes a wonderful prelude or Communion meditation at any time throughout the year.
