WOW. Why did we stop so MUCH? Often I have heard converts say that it was the mystery and beauty of the Mass and the music written by the masters that brought them in. The Mass was in Latin.
@KYsheila I'm a convert myself, and I'll second that! For me, it was sacred polyphony, but Gregorian Chant is growing on me. This is one of my favorite chant melodies, along with Adoro Te Devote, Lauda Sion Salvatorem, and of course, Pange Lingua. Our parish sings all three of these, even in the Ordinary Form, and we still sing them in Latin. We're doing Attende Domine this Wednesday for the imposition of ashes.
@mottledbrain Just talk to your priest and your music director, and suggest it to them. Tell them how much you like chant, and that it would be nice if they included some in the Mass.
If you ever stop in Louisville, KY, please be sure to check out St. Martin of Tours parish, which is the one I attend. You could attend the 11:00 OF, then stick around for the 12:30 EF. Both Masses are great.
@LouisvilleTorn8o I've been thinking about that a lot lately, especially since our church has been undergoing major renovations this year. On April 15 (the Friday just before Palm Sunday) the Bishop will be here to consecrate the new altar and bless other areas. I think some Gregorian Chant would be very appropriate. (I'd hate to hear more CBW III, but that's what it will be.....)
@mottledbrain You could approach your music director, and ask him if the choir could learn Adoro Te Devote for Communion for the altar dedication. It's probably one of the easiest Gregorian chants to learn, and it's so easy that the whole congregation could sing it. There's even an English version called "Humbly I Adore Thee." You could also mension Laetatus Sum to your music director for the Offertory, since the English version is the responsorial psalm for the dedication Mass.
@regisari Pope Paul VI, when reforming the Mass, said that Gregorian Chant has the highest place in worship. Many pastors and music directors misinterpreted Vatican II, and other things said by Pope Paul VI, so they brought in that OCP garbage and completely did away with Gregorian Chant, and in some cases, with any other Latin. It's really sad. Pray for our Church.
Beautiful! This hymn always makes me cry... Who on Earth could give this a "thumbs down??" =(

Giovanni da clases de interpretación de gregoriano. No crea que sea tanto su interés el demostrar sus dotes vocales.

@LouisvilleTorn8o Wow!
I wish my parish would start including some traditional music and chant.
(At least it is quite conservative in most ways.)
