"Gloria" at St. John Cantius Church, Holy Thursday 2009

[tmrmagistra]

The choir is one of several parish choirs, probably the St. Cecelia Choir, an adult choir.

Where did you get the choir, I mean did you hire them or are they the parish choir? If yes, then excellent!

The bells are used during this Gloria because it is the "return of the bells" which, along with the Gloria, were not present in the mass during lent. This mass is part of the Easter vigil. The  "greek Orthodox" priest is really Byzantine catholic, who is present along with priests of other orders.

This is such a beautiful church. I really appreciate with the Canons Regular of St. John Cantius does in the Chruch. I believe you can see the Christmas High Mass on the Sant Missa website.

Gorgeous, thanks for posting it.

Who composed this "Gloria" setting?

[kccauldron]

The setting is from Josquin's Missa Pange Lingua

The seperated Eastern Churchs are schismatics, not heretics. The Catholic Church recognises no doctrinal obstacle to full union.

How come I alaways see the Greek Orthodox Priest that this church? Don't they think that we are heretics?
