In my presentation on the Editio Vaticana (7 videos), given at the Sacred Music Colloquium (2010), I noted that Dom Pierre Comb only told the story from the point of view of Solesmes. I also said that, to obtain a clearer view, one cannot do better than to read Dr. Peter Wagner’s defense of the Editio Vaticana. Therefore, we have made this article available (see below).

As many of you know, Corpus Christi Watershed has made available (for free and instant download) about 33,000 pages of rare Sacred music treatises and scores in the Lalande Library of Rare Books. The Peter Wagner article is yet another contribution in this area.

Do you appreciate these articles, books, treatises, and scores? If so, please consider supporting our work. An easy way to do this would be to explore this brand new website and consider purchasing some of the books there. Please let others know about this site, as well. Thanks!
