Regarding the Magnification "With the Voice of the Archangel," I notice that you seem to indicate that the priest sings the final "alleluia, alleluia, alleluia, Glory to Thee, O God" and then sings "With the voice...." the final time.
The usage with which I am more familiar is that the clergy sing the initial "With the voice..." which the choir then repeats -- the choir does the verse -- repeats "With the voice..." (and so one) -- sings Glory... "Now and ever ..." and the first two "Alleluia, alleluia ..." Then the clergy sing the final "Alleluia ..." Then the choir sings "With the voice...." for the last time.
Perhaps your usage is different; or perhaps the directions you gave are misleading.

Just wondering.
Thanks. Our priest's practice is to sing this himself after the Alleluia. I'll find out if he knows of variations in this...
