This is an arrangement of a Bretonese plainchant, a fauxbourdon from St. Peter's Seminary (FSSP) in Wigratzbad, Germany, and a motet by the mysterious composer Menegali. The alternatim between the plainchant and "polyphony" helps the text enter the deep recesses of petitioning souls. The Menegali (a composer of which little is known) is also attached to this score, a fitting coda to both plainchant and fauxbourdon.
This carefully researched, beautifully engraved, and optimally arranged score will save you hours of preparation and rehearsal time, and be a joy for your singers to use.
I offer make it availble to you, so that you can spend less time at the computer and more time making music.
A percentage of your purchase of this score will go to fssp.com or fsspolgs.org

Joel 2:17: Ps. 50
Between the porch and the altar the priests the Lord’s ministers shall weep, and shall say: Spare, O Lord, spare thy people:
Have mercy on me, O God, according to thy great mercy.
And according to the multitude of thy tender mercies blot out my iniquity.
Wash me yet more from my iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin.
Spare, O Lord, spare thy people: and give not thy inheritance to perdition.
