Lovely program, though I find the choice of Amazing Grace curious, and question the use of an instrumental postlude, which seems not quite in keeping the the…austerity? maybe, “sparenes,s” one expects of lenten liturgy — not that it isn’t always a treat to hear Couperin (I don’t know that work, I’ll have to look for it.)

Do you know, off hand, where one finds the Lee Congregational Mass?
The Gloria is in a number of hymnals, but I’ve never seen anything else from it, and found nothing on the GIA site (though perhaps I just searched badly.)

The organ postlude is indeed troubling. Penkala discusses this in detail.

This is off topic, but I need to thank you, Mr. Aristotle (or is that your first name?) and I am unable to email, only post — for it was on your website where i first learned of the sacred music of Morten Lauridsen.
I am typing with tears streaming down my face as I just received the sheet music for the solo version of O Magnum Mysterium and it is so beautiful I fear I will be unable to ever sing it without sobbing.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!

A strange music list indeed….The only relevant hymn would be the seasonal “Lord who throughout.” I am perplexed by the other choices.
Also, can we leave the Hurd “plainsong” alone? It is offensive to think that we need “new plainsong” when the treasured wealth of the Proper settings from nearly 1500 years ago is perfect…as Christopher smart put it: determined, dared and done.
