A Note on Hymn Tunes:

Each week as I post the music for Sunday mass, I include the name of the hymn tune in all capital letters next to the title.  Every song we sing at mass has two component parts: the tune and the text.  Tunes are often named for people or places or whatever the composer was thinking about at the time.  Texts and tunes are often interchangeable as long as the poetic meter matches the musical meter.  Want to know more?  Look at the bottom of the page of your favorite hymn in our brown hymnal and find the tune name!
