A superior hymnal.,

This review is from: The St. Gregory Hymnal and Catholic Choir Book (primer) (Hardcover)
The St. Gregory Hymnal is by far my favorite hymnal of any I have come across. It contains a very substantial selection of hymns both Latin and English that are beautifully arranged. A must have for any Catholic choir, especially for those that prefer more traditional music. While the music is especially suited for the traditional Latin Mass, it is just as appropriate for a modern Mass as well.

Warning: This hymnal only includes the text of the hymns and chants. Imagine my disappointment as I expected the music to be included!

I grew up in the Catholic Church with this hymnal. It was great to get a larger and more complete version of it.
