Mass Appeal

Just out of curiosity, what is your favorite setting of the Mass? Is it plainchant or orchestral? Anything goes, just so long as it doesn't have gender-confused pronouns.

Mine: Mass for Four Voices by William Byrd

One of mine (I have many I could choose from as I am a singer) is Beethoven's Missa Solemnis. In fact, this weekend the Missa Solemnis is being performed at Hochstein School of Music on Plymouth Avenue. A bunch of TLM people are going for the 4 p.m. concert. Anybody wanna go?

If it has Latin, it's fine with me!

Mass IV from the Graduale Romanum

If anyone would like to listen to some good Catholic church music go to:
http://www.s-clements.org/Music_AudioLibrary.html

Unfortunately, it isn't sung by a Catholic Church choir, but by an Anglo-Catholic choir in Philadelphia.

Thought you all might enjoy listening to good Catholic music while on your computers.

"he who sings prays twice"

To Bishop Clark, From His Humble Servants:

"Prince of degredations, bought and sold,
These verses, written in your crumbling sty,
Proclaim the faith that I have held and hold,
And publish that in which I mean to die."
