The Great 'O' Antiphons

I have a lengthy Post on the O Antiphons at O Night Divine.

Buried in the post is a link to Musica Sacra's online O Antiphon demonstration. This is the first, O Sapienta, with more to come. It's beautiful -- don't miss it!

Jenn,

Do you know, you pray the latin O-Antiphons in a reversed way (from 23 th december to 17 th december), you get the sentence "Ero cras" (I shall be here tomorrow). The O-antiphons ends at 23 th december. It is also a help to remember the Latin verses and it shows the meaning of this period, just before Christmas

Marianna and I found the link to Musica Sacra yesterday from O Night Divine and were awestruck at the beauty. Can a person wear out a digital recording like we used to with records and cassettes? We sure tried!
