This July, while the men's schola is on a well deserved break the ladies schola at my parish will be singing the full proper chants for the 8th, 9th and 10th Sundays after Pentecost. I would like to have the ladies sing the Communion chant using the additional psalm verses. I don't think this is forbidden because after the chant is sung a choir can sing additional motets while the congregation is receiving communion. However, just in case I am wrong does anyone know if it is prohibited? We would sing the antiphon then verse, repeat the antiphon and then any additional verses as needed with the antiphon as a refrain. Thanks in advance.
