Special efforts are to be made to restore the use of the Gregorian Chant by the people, so that the faithful may again take a more active part in the ecclesiastical offices, as was the case in ancient times.

St Pius X – Tra Le Solicitudini – 1903

Our “special effort” is to teach every faithful willing to learn to read the music of the mass: Introduction to the MOVABLE DO method to read the music of the mass . Also Missa Cantata (1962 Missal) requires singers able to prepare independently to sing the proper of the Graduale Romanum.

With the Solfège exercises, everyone can study the foundations of singing the mass at their own pace, at home.

On Sunday rehearsals before mass, we only have time to assess the “solfège-ready” level and, if necessary, adjust what can be sung during the mass.
