choir member behind the altar? that seems wrong...

Of course I am, but nothing in the documents of the Second Vatican Council (or since it) have suggested any different to what he said. I'm certain it's only people who haven't read the documents of the council (and those since) that bring the Council up as a reason for having songs like the one in this video. If you read the GIRM, gregorian chant still has pride of place as it is proper to the Liturgy. The Council also never suggested we get rid of communion rails, Latin etc. etc.

Kittieconvoy: are you aware that Pius X is half-a-century pre-Vatican II? And that William Taft (Pius X's contemporary) isn't in the White House anymore?

@malbertmacl If you read any instruction on sacred music in the liturgy, you will se that this is inappropriate. Some of the instruments played in this video have been explicitly banned from use in the Mass.

"The more closely a composition for church approaches in its movement, inspiration and savor the Gregorian form, the more sacred and liturgical it becomes; and the more out of harmony it is with that supreme model, the less worthy it is of the temple.' (Pope Pius X)

[malbertmacl]

@kittieconvoy why is it inappropriate, or not sacred?

[kittieconvoy]

I have a real problem with this sort of arrangement at a Catholic Mass. Drums and piano/keyboards are banned from use during mass, for a start, and the arrangement is definitely not appropriate considering the sacred nature of the liturgical act.
