speaking for tenors everywhere, and since I know the gentleman singing, we, the tenors of the world, NEVER bellow. We "project" . The only tenors that bellow are poor ones picked for movie versions of the Phantom of the opera.
This church is magnificent. I have been in it probably hundreds of times, since i live in st louis, and it never ceases to amaze.
And, it has an 8 second reverb, which when having the right piece with the right accents, can sound truly breathtaking

The most beautiful church I have ever been in.

My goodness what a spectacular church. It's evokes your spirit just to look at it! Beautiful.

I know they're singing "o come let us adore him", but all I keep hearing is "one of these things is not like the others..." when i see the lay lector in the middle of this procession.

St. Louis, MO? This is a gorgeous church. I have never been there, but I am impressed.

Lose the timpanui and shrill trumpets. The organ is the King of Instruments.
I went to college near this cathedral and this video is very nice, but you have to see it in person and your breath will be taken away.
Interesting fact...the dome is the second highest dome in all of the Catholic Church-second only to St. Peter's in Rome,Italy.

There is nothing quite like the entrance processionals at St. Louis Cathedral: The sight of the procession, the altar aglow with candles, incense rising to the rafters, and the organ in full flood, and a bellowing tenor
