While the Graduale Romanum is the Church's official book for the choir, some beginning scholas (chant choirs) may not be up to the full, extensive chants presented in this book. For them the Church offers the Graduale Simplex for use in smaller churches.
Unlike the Graduale Romanum which sets each text of all the Mass propers throughout the year, the Graduale Simplex includes simplified versions of texts for most Sundays of the liturgical year, as well as for major solemnities and feasts. During Advent, Eastertide and Ordinary Time the Graduale Simplex offers a few "composite" Masses, from which one may choose a Mass to use during any Sunday of that season.
All the texts in the Graduale Simplex are in Latin, the official liturgical language of the Roman Rite. All music is in neums (chant notation).
All the texts are from the new Order of Mass.
