  From the booklet:
  Track 6 - Sanctus V
  The Sanctus of the Mass is sung after the Preface, and just before the Eucharistic Prayer, or Prayer of Consecration, through which bread and wine become the Body and Blood of Christ. This hauntingly beautiful setting, set in the fourth mode, well expresses the composer’s sense of God’s majesty, even as the liturgy announces his coming presence in holiness and power. With the crowds of Hebrew children on Palm Sunday, the assembly responds to the arrival of Jesus by crying “Hosanna!”
  There was a huge mediaeval repertoire of Ordinary Mass Chants, that is, those Chants which set the unvarying texts of the Mass. The Solesmes monks in the nineteenth century made their own selection from this vast store, which they then classified in standard sets: a classification which remains to this day in the Graduale Romanum. The Sanctus Chant sung here is thus assigned to “Mass V”.
  
  • Sanctus, Sanctus, Sanctus Dominus Deus Sabaoth. Pleni sunt caeli et terra gloria tua. Hosanna in excelsis. Benedictus qui venit in nomine Domini. Hosanna in excelsis.
  
  • Holy, Holy, Holy Lord God of hosts. Heaven and earth are full of your glory. Hosanna in the highest. Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord. Hosanna in the highest.
