'Men ate the bread of angels' - so it seemed appropriate to sing about the bread of angels. As an aside the text Panis Angelicus comes from the Sequence for Corpus Christi Lauda Sion.

As an experiment over the next few weeks, while we hear John 6, we will sing the Communion Antiphon with suitable psalm verses. I having been looking at ways of simply setting the antiphon texts so that they could be easily sung using a common formula over a number of weeks. It is one way of connecting this series of Sundays.
