Some of your suggestions, Carlo, also apply to adult readers.

Thanks to the generous gift of several friends of the monastery, we have the technology in place this year to bring you a digital audio recording of Tenebrae for each day of the Triduum through our web page. Our purpose is not to wow you with the technical skill of our chant (we are quite inexperienced!) but to offer you a chance to pray with us from wherever you are in the world. Those who are interested in details of liturgical books can find the music and text we are singing in the ORDO HEBDOMADAE SANCTAE, iuxta ritum monasticum, edition cum cantu gregoriano, cura et studio Monachorum Solesmensium, Desclee et Socii, 1957.
Wishing you all a most prayerful Triduum and an Easter filled with the joy of Christ’s victory!

Circular Letter Concerning the Preparation and Celebration of the Easter Feasts
Congregation for Divine Worship

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The following circular letter (Prot. N. 120/88) was published by the Congregation for Divine Worship on Saturday, 20 February 1988.

64. The order for the celebration of the Lord's Passion (the Liturgy of the Word, the veneration of the Cross, and Holy Communion), that stems from an ancient tradition of the Church, should be observed faithfully and religiously, and may not be changed by anyone on his own initiative.

68. For the veneration of the Cross, let a cross be used that is of appropriate size and beauty, and let one or other of the forms for this rite as found in the Roman Missal be followed. The rite should be carried out with the splendour worthy of the mystery of our salvation: both the invitation pronounced at the unveiling of the Cross, and the people's response should be made in song, and a period of respectful silence is to be observed after each act of veneration, the celebrant standing and holding the raised Cross.

69. The Cross is to be presented to each of the faithful individually for their veneration, since the personal veneration of the Cross is a most important feature in this celebration, and only when necessitated by the large numbers of faithful present should the rite of veneration be made simultaneously by all present. (72)

Only one Cross should be used for the veneration, as this contributes to the full symbolism of the rite. During the veneration of the Cross the antiphons, "Reproaches", and hymns should be sung, so that the history of salvation be commemorated through song. (73) Other appropriate songs may also be sung (cf. n. 42).


Note that the instruction clearly states Cross not Crucifix.
