Abstract

The use of Gregorian chant in liturgical settings diminished sharply after the Second Vatican Council (1962-1965) as a result of that Council's provisions for the use of languages other than Latin in worship. Since the mid-1990s, chant has been enjoying a modest revival.Today, choir directors are more inclined to include chant in their services than they had been in the recent past. However, many are unfamiliar with recently published collections of chant, including new editions from Solesmes requested by the Council itself, as well as collections for general use. This list is intended as a guide to these resources.
