Seminal recording, along with everything else I have listened to so far in the Archive of Recorded Church Music..... what a treasure!

It seems the service followed the alternative communion order of the 1928 proposed BCP (it was a great book, but had a miserable fate).

Fascinating precious relic of late 50s 'High Church' - 'very advanced' for an English Cathedral in 1959! (Did I smell incense in the background?!) Can anyone name this forgotten contemporary Mass setting? 'English Missal' 'Gradual' (psalm verse) and 'Alleluia' from 'The English Gradual' (Francis Burgess)' (also the 'Offertory' verse before the hymn). The celebrant shows a slight 'Romeward' leaning: the greeting before the Collect is 'Sarum' (to keep the choir happy?), then his intonating of the Collect is 'Western Rite', but with a 'Sarum' ending (to keep the choir happy!). Thank you for finding and sharing this treasure!

I was just thinking the same - would it have been unusual to hear the Greek kyrie back then (was under the impression the Greek/Latin weren't commonplace until the 70s...)
