                      When preparing music for your assembly do you
                        consider:
                      
                        | the time of day |  
                        | the make-up & size of the
                          assembly at this particular mass |  
                        | any recent happenings in the parish, community,
                          city, state or nation which might be reflected in the
                          prayer of the assembly (a parishioner dying of cancer,
                          a flood, civil war, elections) |  
                        | the unique resonance of your
                          worship space |  
                        | Your music ministers: |  
 
                      
                        | their unique abilities |  
                        | instrumentation (one instrument, two or more?) |  
                        | vocalists (cantor, small group and/or choir) |  
                        | presentation (cantor with organ is different from
                          cantor with piano which is different from cantor with
                          keyboard which is different from cantor with guitar…) |  
                        | where they are located in your worship space |  
 
                      
                        | the Readings (including Responsorial Psalm) |  
                        | the planned homily, presider input |  
                        | Liturgy Committee recommendations |  
                        | reflections by other ministers (Eucharistic Ministers,
                          Readers, Greeters, Ushers, Dancers, Servers, any other
                          minister involved with this Liturgy) |  |  |   |
