Gregorian Chant based on Graduale Triplex

Maggie Hettinger of the Random Light weblog has made available MP3 recordings and some JPG scans of chants from the Graduale Triplex on her chant page. Don’t miss the birds singing in the background. :-)

This is probably old news to the rest of you, but in case not, CanticaNova had a link to a wonderful Amrosian chant site.

(PDF of MANY chants.)

Geri, I can’t speak for others, but this was news to me. I went over there and found over 50 PDF files of Ambrosian Chant, most of them nicely illustrated as well. I decided to print them off and have them spiral bound, to keep for future reference. Thanks.

Thanks, Geri. I hadn’t seen these.

I’m trying to figure out why their beautiful pages are a 33K size, whereas when I try to make a PDF version of a two-page rehearsal sheet, it comes out to be 9 megabytes. Totally unusable. :)

Maggie, it may have something to do with the format of the document you are trying to publish. PDF is a postscript-type format, which consists of lots of dot locations and directional vectors. If you first save your document as a GIF, which is a pretty flexible, yet compact, format, you’ll likely get better results than if you tried to perform a similar action on a bitmap image, which consists entirely of isolated dots. The latter would necessarily require more instructions to represent in a postscript format. Just a hunch.
