Matutinum + 2nd Nocturn in Septuagesima/Lent

Pre-morning prayer - for Tuesday and Friday

I’m copying from the previous post, just changing the bit to make it 2nd Nocturn. Even the audio pretty much does this. It’s a shortcut. Hope it’s not too aggravating.

Matins is a bit of a tough one. The invitatory stays the same, so you get the hang of that. The responsories have a bit of variation and in Lent where the Te Deum is not said and instead there’s a third responsory, “Felix namquam”. I’m singing the one from the Baronius Press book, which comes from Hartker’s Nocturnale.

But here is Matins for Tuesday and Friday from Septuagesima Sunday through to Holy Wednesday or Holy Saturday if you’re praying in private.

I’ve included the optional ending in case you don’t go straight into Lauds. Feel free to skip this if you have Lauds queued up ready to roll. Hopefully your podcast app allows you to do this.
