Question:
The Litany of the Holy Name given in the Cantuale Romano-Seraphicum (1951) has the following annotation:
Melodia partim ex libris Solesmensibus, partim nova.
So, if the melody for part of it exists elsewhere in the books of Solesmes, can anyone track it down?
I've had a fair go, and turned up nothing.
Also, why does the text in Cant.RS have "Christe audi / exaudi nos." in the beginning, but "Jesu audi /exaudi nos." at the end, instead of the latter in both instances?
The only other Solesmes edition of the Litaniae Sanctissimi Nominis Jesu that I have found is from a 1906 Cantuale (see attachment, or look it up on Google books for yourself). However, this merely uses the same melody as one of the alternate tones for the Litany of Loreto. Also, this version makes no distinction in tone when the responses change halfway through.
Vale in Domino,
Jonathan
