Timoteo J. M. Ofrasio, S.J., (“Music for the Solemnities and Feasts of the Lord in Ordinary Time”) discusses the history, the theology, and the Mass prayers of the Solemnities of the Holy Trinity, the Body and Blood of Christ, the Sacred Heart of Jesus, the Feast of the Transfiguration of the Lord, and the Solemnity of Jesus Christ King of the Universe, in order to draw out the theological themes that should ideally permeate the liturgical songs for these feasts. In line with the principle of lex orandi, lex credendi, the writer stresses the importance of expressing and celebrating the respective theological contents of these feasts in the liturgical songs. In addition, the writer discusses some of the essential characteristics of liturgical music and the role music plays in instilling the true spirit of the liturgy. Lastly, he offers some critique on the choice of musical accompaniment in vogue today. – from the Editor’s Preface
