Composer Notes This Canticle o Mary can be ound on Morning Evening rayer or the Commute, rayer or the Journey (double CD 20099, songbook 20139), here the canticle is recorded in ive dierent ays: 1) Unison a cappella 2) Soprano solo ith harp 3) Unison ith keyboard accompaniment 4) Verses alternating omen s and men s voices 5) Unison ith expanded choral-harmony cadences It is also available on Glory Bound (CD 20638, octavo packet 20639), a compilation o pieces rom Morning and Evening. LITURGICAL USE: It may be sung as the canticle at the end o Evening rayer, or at any time as a song o praise on easts o Our Lady, and especially on the ourth Sunday o Advent. Sing it at times o prayer or justice, peace, or outreach to the poor and celebrations o commitment to the religious lie. ERORMANCE: The text o Mary s canticle is a radical airmation o the poer o God. It should be sung ith conviction. Sing reely in a chant-like style in speech rhythm and ith natural stresses on important ords. Its strong melody allos it to ork ell unaccompanied. When sung accompanied, do not let the accompanying instrument dominate. When singing in unison, sing rom the guitar version to avoid conusion ith the uller harmonized version.
