There is a New Version of the Liturgy of the Hours … and it’s known as The Mundelein Psalter

For those of you who love the Liturgy of the Hours but prefer more traditional forms and chant, the Mundelein Psalter is a beautiful work. Here are a few of the details about it:

Translations of hymns proper to each ferial day and a selection of hymns for feasts and solemnities (taken from the editio typica).
Music with the ancient modal settings is provided for each hymn. Hymns are also arranged to be sung with any long meter (lm) tune.
It contains a collection of 14 optional modes that can be used as needed.
It uses the Grail Psalms and contains Morning Prayer, Evening Prayer, and Night Prayer.
It also includes the Sanctoral cycle and the Office for the Dead as well as a Pastoral Implementation Guide for the progressive implementation of the Liturgy of the Hours in a parish setting.

It can be purchased by clicking here.
