Benediction

For the fellows who are training for serving Benediction on Thursdays,
This is in the usus antiquior, which is indistinguishable from the new rite. (OK, maybe the kissing of the priests hand and the Biretta... but otherwise the same).

Gregorian Chant Recordings

Here is a webpage that has links to a lot of Gregorian Chant recordings including some of the Magnificat. I am not sure if it has a link to the Magnificat that we are learning. There are some useful recordings of some sequences, if we ever want to sing a sequence at Mass.
