Synopsis
Psallite Sapienter: A Musician’s Guide to the 1962 Missal, by B. Andrew Mills, addresses a critical need in today’s Catholic Church. In one volume, the author provides a comprehensive, authoritative, and easy-to-understand guide to providing music for the classic Roman Rite.
It covers the types of sung Masses and and what is required of the organist and choir, and the expectations and needs of the full liturgical year, plus weddings, funerals, and Benediction.
It combines an explanation of the rubrics with the author’s own extensive experience with the 1962 Missal, which is particularly useful since the author understands the ordinary form as well and the differences. This one book does the work of a full library on the topic of the extraordinary form, telling musicians just what they need to know. It's no wonder the Vatican's "Ecclesia Dei" commission recommended this book to Catholic musicians in 2008!
The author is Music Director at Old Saint Patrick Church in New Orleans. Previously he was Organist and Choirmaster at the Church of Saint Agnes in New York City.
