Liber Usualis 1962 Rubrics (Latin Chant with Gregorian Notation)

Liber Usualis (1963 Edition, with 1962 Rubrics)

This faithful reprint preserves the final edition of the Liber Usualis published before the liturgical changes following the Second Vatican Council. Our edition is based on the 1963 printing and contains the 1962 rubrics in English—unlike later printings which reverted to Latin—while retaining the original Gregorian notation for the chant.
