|  |  | # Communion Song or Antiphon 274. According to IG 86, the Communion Song is begun during the priest's reception of communion. 275. According to IG 87, the song may be sung by the choir alone or by the choir or cantor with the congregation. The song is to be approved by the Conference of Bishops, or be an antiphon from the Gradulae Romanum (with or without the psalm) or an antiphon with psalm from the Graduale Simplex. 276. If there is no singing, the Communion Antiphon from the Missal is recited by the faithful, a group of them, by the reader, or by the priest. If recited by the priest, he says it after he has received communion, and before he gives communion to the faithful. For Mass with only one minister, without a congregation, the priest says the communion antiphon (IG 269). 2002 IG 269 changes the Communion Antiphon instructions. I think: so it is by the priest or minister.
