A further problem with translating texts of hymns & anthemns - something I do for our choir - is deciding whether to be faithful to the letter of the text or to produce something which can be made to fit the music. I tend to do the former, since the words go into the bulletin; but some of the worst translations I have seen - from the viewpoint of fidelity to the original Latin - do fit the music passably enough. tom izbicki %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
