Ubi Caritas setting

Post by Dot »

One omission I see from this list which has become something of a standard for us since using it at the big Millennium Mass at the NEC is:
Bob Hurd's Ubi Caritas (arr. Craig Kingsbury) with refrain in Latin and verses in English, SATB parts, and a beautiful oboe line on top of simple keyboard accompaniment.
