This seems to have been abandoned with the publication of the Vatican Edition and could possibly be explained in principle9 by the quote given at the start of this document. However, there is one thing that did not appear in Pothier's Preface, but was added in the Vatican Preface, namely example D : 8 The explanation for this is that Dom Mocquereau was trying to match the St. Gall rhythmic markings, rather than adhere to the Vatican Edition.

Solesmes published several pamphlets clearly stating this fact cf. Furthermore, in example D Dom Pothier left the required notehead of space, but the explanation does not require that space. Suffice it to say that each and every edition treats instances of example D differently, and many are internally inconsistent.

Furthermore, one cannot have recourse to the earlier Pothier editions for clarification because as stated this rhythmic rule was mysteriously invented for the Vatican Edition.

When the student finds different interpretations for melismatic morae in the different editions, one need not necessarily infer sloppiness or ill intentions. Sometimes, the editor was doubtless trying to be rhythmically consistent when the same melodic passage occurs in more than one Proper, for example. The fact that the Vatican Edition contains errors cannot be denied, and typos are entirely understandable, considering how quickly these massive volumes were published.

In his book, Joseph Gogniat11 has pointed out some indisputable Vatican Edition typos; for example, the inconsistent application of liquescents. Finally, with regard to the rhythm of the quilisma, it could be noted that the Vatican Preface seems to allow for the possibility of lengthening the first note as has become traditional when it says: V.

Who Produced the Vatican Edition? To understand the true state of things, one must realize that Dom Joseph Pothier entered the Solesmes congregation in and published his Liber Gradualis in along with several other important works on chant. Then, in , he became Abbot of St. Wandrille, another Solesmes daughterhouse. When Dom Pothier left Solesmes, his student Dom Mocquereau took over where he left off, and quickly started experimenting with different methods of publishing chant as well as modifying many of Pothier's ideas.

It is enlightening to study these early Mocquereau editions and note the evolution of his notation, sometimes changing from month to month. As stated above, Dom Pothier used his editions as the basis for the Vatican Edition especially the Graduale and Antiphonale. Fribourg: Switzerland, To give just one example of the ways Dom Mocquereau departed from his teacher, this excerpt from Mocquereau's Manuale should suffice: VI.

Looking Back at the Vatican Edition a Century Later To Dom Mocquereau belongs the credit for advancing the scientific studies of Medieval chant manuscripts in an unparalleled way, and his scholarship in this area remains totally supreme even to this day.

This seems to have been acknowledged to some extent even his own time, and one example would be the eyewitness account given by Father Alexander Grospellier describing the visit of the Vatican Commission to the Solesmes paleographical workshop in September, Although some entered the scriptorium with some residual caution and defiance, they left with confidence in their souls and with praise on their lips for Dom Mocquereau and his worthy team.

Pothier's editions of chant, officially adopted by the Church, have been sung, studied, and loved by hundreds of millions of Catholics. Indeed, on 30 September, , when the Church Music Association of America generously released the preliminary version of the Graduale for free download on its centennial, the traffic was so overwhelming that the server actually crashed. In his wildest dreams, while painstakingly hand-copying manuscripts of Gregorian chant, could Dom Pothier ever have imagined that?
