Signum Ambrosianum, a cultural organization dedicated to the preservation of the Milanese liturgical patrimony, has just published a new edition of the traditional Ambrosian Ordo Missae. The complete Latin text is accompanied by an Italian translation, as well as all of the necessary rubrics; the chanted parts of the Ordinary are noted with their music. The booklet also includes the Asperges, the twelve Kyrie eleisons sung as part of the procession before Mass, the antiphons of the Virgin, and the Litany of Loreto. There are also several illustration with images taken from a 1594 edition of the Missale Ambrosianum; the Curia of the Archdiocese has given its Nihil obstat and Imprimatur to this work.
