The Anglican Church is the English Catholic church, and in many cases the liturgy is even higher than that in RC churches.

@oofahman It absolutely depends on taste. St. Patrick's is Rome beauty, St. John's is England beauty! Obviously I prefer England. :)

This State Trumpet stop on 50-inches of wind sounds like the the Theatre Organ "Serpent" stop. Both have the very "thin" and bright sound. I think the Serpent stop seems to have more "crack" in the sound which sounds like a rip saw cutting through sheet metal. The "Bugel Battalia" is another stop in this loud, bright, and thin sounding organ stop family.

Liturgical abuse in whose opinion? Are they not dancing before the Lord?

It was a thrill for me to see Archbishop Dolan and Cardinal Eagan in this video.

@ms103127 yeah, go figure, eh??
What is a "Rededication Service"? However, this is just beautiful.

@deei2 The Cathedral was rededicated almost 7 years after the devastating December, 2001 fire in the North Transcept. A 4 year cleaning/rehabilitation project finished before the 67th anniversary of the original Cathedral dedication service on November 30th, 1941. The 1941 service celebrated the completion of the full length of the Cathedral. The 2008 rededication service was a rebirth for the Cathedral's cleaned interior.

Such a big and glorious building, but St. Patrick's is much more "beautiful"

@oofahman Very hard to compare St. Pat's with St. John The Divine...I disagree with your "beautiful" statement...

It's a matter of opinion..and opinions are like belly buttons..everyone has one...I will always believe that St. Pat's is a much more beautiful worship space...St. John's is ok, but it's dark, gray and dingy...sorry if that disappoints you...

@oofahman When was the last time you visited St. John's? Have you been there since the cleaning? It isn't dark, grey and dingy any longer....Did you actually watch this video and my other videos of the rededication in 2008?
