S P Accompaniments and Choral Arrangements
These musical settings are written to be accompanied by keyboard
and/or guitar. While some guitar chords reflect a
harmony different from the notated keyboard/choral har-mony, the
chords and keyboard part are compatible and function well together.
Some chords have been bracketed— these may be omitted by the
guitarist when playing alone.
Choral arrangements with descants are provided for all Responsorial
Psalms and Gospel Acclamations.
Psalm Responses and Gospel Acclamations
All Psalm Responses and Gospel Acclamations offered in
Respond & Acclaim match those found in Today’s
Missal, Heritage Missal, Companion Missal, Breaking
Bread and the English portion of Unidos en Cristo/United
in Christ. Span- ish responses and acclamations by various
composers are available in the OCP resource Responde y
Aclama.
Psalm and Gospel Verses
Psalm verses are designed to be sung by a cantor or a vocal
ensemble. They are not intended for use by the assembly. If it is
not practical for the verses to be sung, they may be spoken while
the accompaniment is played softly as a back- ground to the spoken
word. At the end of each verse, the assembly sings the
response.
Gospel verses are sung in the same manner as the psalm verses. It
should be noted that according to the General
Instruction of the Roman Missal, if the Gospel Acclamation or
Verse before the Gospel is not sung, it may be omitted altogether
(GIRM 63c).
On the Singing of Chant Verses
The first preparation for singing the verses is done without the
music—they should be read, understood, and allowed to emanate from
a place of prayer in the hearts of the singers.
The verse settings are chant tones which by their very nature flow
in long, lyrical lines. While the tones do not draw atten- tion to
themselves, these verses should come across as an important part of
the whole, not just as “filler” until the next repetition of the
response, and should be sung in a way that reflects the character
of the individual response.
In cases where the number of phrases in a psalm verse is not
consistent throughout the psalm, dashed lines in parentheses are
shown. In order to maintain the proper harmonic pro- gression, the
accompaniment may still be played under the dashed lines even
though there is no sung text. The cantor would then resume singing
at the next appropriate phrase. Choose a tempo that will not
disrupt the flow of the music.
Singers must proclaim the verses with clarity so that the text is
understood and its meaning is clear. A cantor can easily make use
of rubato to emphasize specific words; a choir, however, will have
to spend time on coordination to achieve the same effect.
Whoever sings the psalm verses plays a vital role in the assem-
bly’s participation at this point in the Liturgy of the Word.

Respond & Acclaim Indexes
An Index of Celebrations is included on page 155. Scriptural,
alphabetical, and ritual indexes are provided beginning on page 157
for easy reference. You’ll find a common (sea- sonal) psalm index
on page 158. While as a rule the desig- nated psalm of the day is
to be used, common (seasonal) psalms are provided by the Church as
options. This is so that the assembly may repeat a psalm over
several celebrations in the same season and therefore participate
more readily (Introduction to the Lectionary for Mass 89,
GIRM 61).
