Discover the timeless masterpiece of the Liber Usualis. Originally printed in 1963 with the 1962 rubrics in English (unlike recent printings in Latin), this edition preserves the authenticity of the pre-Vatican II liturgy. Immerse yourself in the sacred chants with the original Gregorian notation, enhancing your spiritual journey.
Designed for lasting use, our newly reprinted edition features a sewn hardback cloth black binding with reinforced hinges and durable end sheets. Experience the reassurance of a book that won't fall apart even after years of constant or daily use. The spine and cover are elegantly stamped with the book's name in a Gothic script, adding a touch of sophistication. For easy reference, six colored ribbon markers and red edges are included, ensuring a seamless navigation experience.
The cream white-colored paper cleverly conceals shadows and prevents notes from the other side of the page from showing through. We have opted for thin paper to reduce the size and bulk of the book without compromising the quality of the content. The use of real ink in printing further enhances the authenticity of this edition.
Delighting our customers, this edition includes a valuable supplement for the "Mass of the Immaculate Heart of Mary" celebrated on August 22nd. Additionally, we have added the tract for the Septuagesima season and Lent, as well as an extra Alleluia for the Easter season in place of the gradual. These additions, not found in the original Liber Usualis, cater to those who use this Mass as a votive Mass throughout the liturgical year.
Keeping you up to date, we have meticulously updated the table of moveable feasts, ensuring its accuracy up to the year 2051. Stay informed about important dates and celebrations, making this edition a reliable companion for years to come.
Experience the exact reprint of the original Liber Usualis with its significant enhancements. Immerse yourself in the profound beauty of sacred music and liturgy, and order your copy today.
