Which number movement?[edit]

I don't think it makes much sense to say that Agnus Dei is the xth movement of a mass setting. Looking at the Mass in B minor: many numberings exist, even by the same publisher. Any mass with an article will show where the Agnus Dei is, I think we can drop those rather irrelevant numbers. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 12:13, 23 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

List of examples[edit]

The main article should reference other, non-full-mass versions. As an example - and I'd argue its high on the list of the most inspirational pieces of music ever written - is Palestrina's version. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.82.98.69 (talk) 15:13, 14 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Merger proposal[edit]

The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section. A summary of the conclusions reached follows.
The result of this discussion was merge. Two in favor, one against. For the most part, the two articles duplicate each other. The objection put forward by the single Oppose vote is resolved by using Agnus Dei as the title for the merged article. Jdcompguy (talk) 05:45, 12 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Request received to merge articles: Agnus Dei (music) into Agnus Dei (liturgy); dated: {September 2019}. Proposer's Rationale: {Both are similar articles, about the exact same topic. }. Discuss here. - AH (talk) 22:17, 17 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Merge selectively, the lead only. The other pieces in the Ordinary Mass have both liturgy and music combined, and the examples in there are various arrangements of Ordinary Mass. (irrelevant comment but singing as part of a choir for a Mass is an amazing experience even for a non-Christian.) robertsky (talk)
  • Oppose merge because this article is (or should be) focused on not liturgical musical pieces called Agnus Dei, beginning with the Barber, and not ending with popular music. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 22:08, 20 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support - Liturgical music and non-liturgical music are not easily separated. Liturgical music and liturgical text are not easily separated. I furthermore doubt sources exist which discuss Agnus Dei (music) in depth as a distinct topic. Daask (talk) 21:14, 15 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
