Music for Common Worship - Exsultet

Download this provisional edition for the Easter Vigil 2007

This edition of the Exsultet sets the new text provided in Common Worship: Times and Seasons, including optional refrains. It is adapted from the Roman tone that has been in common use in the Anglican tradition since the version made by G. H. Palmer a century or so ago.

At this stage this is a provisional edition, for use at the Easter Vigil 2007. Those who use it and wish to make suggestions about amendments or improvements are encouraged to write to the RSCM Press (press@rscm.com), so that a definitive edition can be produced before Easter 2008.
