At 2.15 the theme is the gregorian Magnificat

So utterly delicious. Isn't this just the loftiest of human achievement? Such depth and power.

another place to consider for those who read plainsong better than i do. Notice on page 490 it says the offertory is page 677. i looked at it...it seems like a crazy close possibility...someone check it out!

... actually upon a second hearing i now think it could be the alleluia...but i am not sure really... poo, sorry guys..let you down.

I FOUND IT!!!!! Its the Miribantur Omnes from the communion on 3rd Sunday after Epiphany (Comm. 7, page 491, Liber Usualis) Wow... it is even more amazing than before to hear this piece knowing that this little melody is all he had to work with...
What is that book Daniel has on the stand, the one you zoom in on?

It is an old copy of the book of chants for the yearly Catholic mass cycle -- something that was more commonly used during the days of the Latin masses (and coming back into fashion). M. Roth frequently refers to this book for the chant melodies.

A companion volume is the Graduale Triplex (In Latin) which has been available on Amazon for $54 but now appears to be out of stock.
