: If you were to attend a High Choral Eucharist in an Episcopal/Anglican Church, how do they all handle the balance between sung propers and hymns?
: Chris S.
Anglicans don't propers like you would find in the Graduale Romanum. They use hymns that are proper to a given day. Each Sunday has a hymn of the day assigned to it. I think they call them sequence hymns and they are sung just before the Gospel. If they were to use Gregorian chant it would be Mass ordinaries. Anglican chant is used for the psalms and is done in 4-part harmony. So in their tradition the hymns do constitute the propers.
