It is a short prayer said just before Communion.
It is usually called the Communion Antiphon. Traditionally a Psalm was recited during Communion with a refrain, or Antiphon, repeated every two lines. Organ music, chant, polyphony and in modern churches, church bands or mixed choirs, can also sing appropriate church music and songs during this time depending on how long it will take for Communion to be distributed to the entire congregation. At the end of the distribution of Communion, usually at the reposition of the Sacrament (i.e. putting the remaining Hosts into the tabernacle) the choir sings the Communion.AnswerWhen Holy Communion is distributed, the choir often receives first that they might return to their places and sing uninterrupted for the rest of the distribution. During this time there is no hymn sung, though an organist might play a low background piece if they have received Communion in an earlier Mass or plan to receive Communion last. Whne the choir returns they sing the Communion Antiphon which is usually a Psalm or series of Psalms with a refrain that is repeated every two lines. If the choir wishes, and if there is yet many to receive, they may sing another song after the Communion Antiphon, so long as it is in keeping with the spirit of the event.
An antiphon is a short chant in Christian ritual, sung as a refrain. Antiphons are Psalm-texted.
Antiphon means the same as feedback, interpretation, justification, result, or sign. Some antonyms for the word antiphon include problem, question, quiet, request, silent, or trouble.

Catholics do not take communion, they receive communion.
Communion
That is a redundancy. If you are a Catholic you are in communion with Rome. If you are not in communion with Rome, you are not a Catholic.
I believe they practice closed communion.
Catholic AnswerNo, the Prayer after Holy Communion is in the Missal. The Communion "reflection" is something that the priest is making up.
When talking about Holy Communion, then yes. If you are talking about a communion as a group, then no.
Communion means reconciliation with one another and with God.So every place can be the place of communion.
