Instruction of the Congregation of Rites on music in the liturgy, March 5, 1967. 1967 .txt text/plain 7007 341 63 In sung or said Masses the organ, or other instrument legitimately admitted, can be used to accompany the singing of the choir and the people; it can also be played “solo” at the begin- ning before the priest reaches the altar, at the Offertory, at the Communion, and at the end of Mass. The same rule, with the necessary adaptations, can be ap- plied to other sacred celebrations. One cannot find anything more religious and more joy- ful in sacred celebrations than a whole congregation expressing its faith and devotion in song. cache/_005196748.txt txt/_005196748.txt
