Re: World Youth Day Sleep-Over
That's from 2002. Benedict has been reforming alot. He has already banned certain music in the vatican that JPII allowed. He is promoting sacred polyphony.

Re: World Youth Day Sleep-Over
I agree, there are "supposed" to be many reforms by Pope Benedict... I hope he is able to put an end to this chaos...

Re: World Youth Day Sleep-Over
Yep...I agree and I think he will. We are just seeing the tip of the iceberg.

Re: World Youth Day Sleep-Over
Yeah, I hear the translation of the liturgy is on its way. I know someone who was able to get a sneak peak at it and he said it was very very good. He is a choir director and he said it will help to promote polyphony and chant.
I hope the reform of the reform is strong and sweeping... literally a earthquake (a good one) within the Church... Hopefully ad orientum and sacred music will be brougtht back to the liturgy as well as the sense of the sacred within our churches.
high hopes i know, but perhaps...

Re: World Youth Day Sleep-Over
I heard the same thing while on vacation at a parish in Steamboat Springs, CO. The priest talked about the translation of the liturgy that was occuring. The only bad thing I remember him saying was that it will probably be a few years before we get it.

Re: World Youth Day Sleep-Over
Dude, I wish we got to hear some Skynyrd this year! They did play CCR once but that was about it for classic rock.
This article Gavin posted makes me think of Dana Carvey's "Church Lady" character. It seems to me that it overreaches; searching everywhere for anything one could complain about, which only serves to obscure the things that really are problematic. Yeah, skanky dress is bad. Yeah, anything involving the Eucharist should be reverant. And yeah, almost every attempt to combine religious music with rock music ruins both. But from reading the article you'd think it was somehow un-Catholic to stay up late or listen to world music. I enjoyed some things at WYD 2005 and was bothered by some things, but I tried to remember that at 23 I'm an old man and it's not all for me.
