About Through-Singing the Eucharistic Prayer
Bill Gartig
Historians of liturgy tell us that long ago it was not just the Sursum corda and the Conclusion of the Great Thanksgiving that were chanted by the priest. The entire prayer, from start to finish, was chanted. A through-setting of Prayer C has long been available in the organist’s edition of the Hymnal 1982, and these settings of mine are meant to do the same for Prayers A and B.
I have now also posted my revised through-setting (in Gregorian notation) of Eucharistic Prayer D in Mozarabic chant. This difficult-to-sing setting is only for the most vocally able and ambitious.

Rite I in Rite II Language
Richard Pryor
These liturgies were developed in response to General Convention Resolution 2024-A113 which delayed the creation and usage of Rite I liturgies in the contemporary idiom for another three years. As most of the language found in these liturgies is from similar resources in other Anglican provinces, they are offered so that those who wish to mine the depths of Cranmer's theology and rich prayers while using contemporary language can, and before 2027.
