"Pray It in Latin" Deo gratias! At last, a resource for Catholics who wish to reclaim their liturgical heritage! Elegant and user-friendly, this manual teaches readers how to recite standard Catholic prayers and the entire Mass in Latin. A cantor, musician, and composer, Pizzuti emphasizes Church Latin's natural tone and rhythm, breaking up longer prayers into spoken melodic phrases with clear pronunciation notes. A simple but effective and rewarding pedagogical technique. Older Catholics, who remember the Tridentine Mass, will be pleased, but younger Catholics, who have never studied Latin, will benefit. This guide couldn't be more timely, since pending reforms will make the Latin Mass more common and the vernacular mass closer to the original liturgy.
