Laudate is a book at the service of the liturgy: the seasons, the Mass, the Sacraments, Funerals, the Prayer of the Church. It is arranged in liturgical order and contains the widest selection of music available in a Catholic hymnbook – from plainchant to the present day. Laudate has been compiled by Stephen Dean and an experienced editorial team.
With the Nihil Obstat and Imprimatur, this was the first officially authorised hymnbook since the introduction of the new translation. It contains the masses that have been revised in accordance with the 2010 English translation of the Roman missal, and about 25 replacement hymns. It also contains additional Mass settings – the Belmont Mass (Walker), Mass of Christ our Saviour (Schutte) and (for the first time in a mainstream hymnal) a complete Welsh mass by Alan Rees with new acclamations.
This edition is is one volume.
