"I highly recommend this new English Gradual to anyone who wants to
sing the proper antiphons on a regular basis and is looking for
very accessible, yet most beautiful chant in the vernacular. We
cannot thank Fr. Samuel Weber enough for all his hard work, a true
labor of love and dedication to liturgy and the Church. I am most
confident that this new Gradual will become a standard work and
hopefully find a home in many parishes."
- Dr. Horz Buchholz, Director of Sacred Music Cathedral Basilica of
Saint Louis, St. Louis, MO"Fr. Samuel Weber has performed an
outstanding service to the liturgy of the English-speaking world.
He has taken the antiphons of the new English translation of the
RomanMissal and provided musical settings for them that are
accessible to both parishes and choirs of various levels. In doing
so, he has enabled the Catholic faithful to encounter the word of
God in an English context that has been inaccessible to them for
far too long. The Church has, for centuries, used these antiphons
in Latin for her official worship, and now Fr. Weber has made that
possible in English as well.Fr. Weber has made a quite remarkable
contribution to the handing down of the Tradition-in the midst of
the Church-in medio ecclesiae. May this collection serve the
Church's liturgy, her 'source and summit' in numerous ways, some of
which will be known only in eternity." - Rev. Kurt Belsole, O.S.B.,
Director of Liturgical Formation Pontifical North American College,
Vatican City
