As you can see, the Simple Propers Project is swiftly moving along! Somehow we skipped Holy Week in our eagerness to get to the Easter Season–you can expect this and the Solemnities at the conclusion of the Easter Season by the end of the week.
A special thanks to all of those who have been reporting errors in the early drafts that have been posted. This is the beauty of the “beta” process. It will help ensure a reliable collection when it is completed.
These are beautiful. Thank you. Maybe it's explained somewhere, but what do you do for flex? Is there a certain note for it?
Also I haven't seen it here yet, but in the last set you posted a few weeks ago, the 1st Sunday of Lent Introit seems to have moving notes for the flex in the 2nd verse,'…his (Italicized) pin (boldfaced)ions.†' What is suggested there?
Thank you.

Hello Mia–I've been meaning to do a tutorial on these psalm tones, and I think I will soon.
For these tones all that is done for the flex is to continue to sing on the same reciting pitch. You simply observe a pause in the text and continue on to the next line on the very same pitch.
"the 1st Sunday of Lent Introit seems to have moving notes for the flex in the 2nd verse,'…his (Italicized) pin (boldfaced)ions.†' What is suggested there?"
You squashed a bug! This is a mistake and it will be corrected. Thanks for pointing this out.
Thanks Adam. I suspected the 'pause' on the flex, since there's no note, but I wanted to make sure. (it also makes sense that you want to make it simple, yet beautiful.)
I'm so proud I contributed something here :-), finding a 'bug'.
Thank you for all your hard work
