La Música en el Culto Divino
Cantemos al Señor: La Música en el Culto Divino equips Catholic music minsters with everything they need to know about music in the liturgy. Originally released by the USCCB in 2007 and now available in this beautiful edition from OCP, it provides much-needed guidance for anyone involved in liturgical ministry. Cantemos al Señor offers instruction on matters from the practical (instrument placement, acoustics, copyrights) to the pastoral (ministerial roles, cultural diversity, formation), illustrates the role and historical use of music in the liturgy, and outlines how to evaluate music for liturgical use (the liturgical, pastoral and musical judgements).
Incorporate this document in your music ministry: use it to evaluate your current repertoire of liturgical music; to your role in the liturgy; to provide formation for music ministers; and to inform your preparation of the sacred liturgy.
“Liturgy is the source of the Church’s prayer and action, and the summit by which our lives and all our ministries ascend to the Father. We pray that this document will draw all who worship the Lord into the fullness of liturgical, musical prayer.” – Forward
