ROMAN GRADUAL

A liturgical book containing the choral parts of the Mass. It belongs logically together with the sacramentary and lectionary. It was revised and the new Gradual was authorized on June 24, 1972.

When this came up today I knew I needed to post it. Reason in next post.

[GOP Poet]

great. Thanks. Look forward to next post then.

There was a comment on the Bad Music thread about singing the Mass.

The Gradual is one of the paths to that. But how many Choir Directors use the Gradual anymore?

In Latin, though-you have heard Latin from the priests? .
Well, they would call it a graduale. .
From gradus, a step, you know.”

Shef waited, not sure of the point.
“There are those who believe in the Holy Graduale.
The Franks call it the Holy Graal.
Dreadful the way the Franks talk Latin-can you imagine
a language in which aqua turns into eau?
Yes, the Holy
Graduale,
***

From Harry Harrison’s view that the Grail, Graduale is
the ladder that was used to remove Christ from the Cross
and was used to carry Christ to his grave site.

Ecclesiastical Trivia Bonus question:

Why is it called a Gradual? Hint: It's not because they sing too slowly.
