Easter time is past and this year we managed the total change of Mass settings. Simpler for the Summer. Indeed it is almost a year since we began singing the new translation - we delayed a couple of weeks due to Conferences last year. The Penitential Act and Lamb of God were new. It was a little odd that the Penitential Act is in F#m and is followed by the Gloria in C major. I may yet change the Lamb of God - I feel we need, for a contrast with preceding seasons, something a little more expansive.
We were unaccompanied but the congregation sang the opening hymn well - its strong melody working well.
