It reminds me of a delicious maxim that liturgists were provided by God so that an alternative method of suffering for the Faith could be available for Catholics.<BR/><BR/>Ouch!Pippohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18418314969026879368noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28018475.post-26942687769498742202008-04-03T22:14:00.000+01:002008-04-03T22:14:00.000+01:00If you haven't already seen this, then you might b...If you haven't already seen this, then you might be interested in the <A HREF="http://www.mgilleland.com/music/moratorium.htm" REL="nofollow">Society for a Moratorium on the Music of<BR/>Marty Haugen and David Haas</A>.Liam O'Harahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02937113280956284421noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28018475.post-51906891870679894702008-04-03T22:10:00.000+01:002008-04-03T22:10:00.000+01:00The thing is the Church doesn't even need people t...The thing is the Church doesn't even need people to do his job we have already have 2000 years worth of beautiful Catholic music.<BR/><BR/>New is rarely better.Volpius Leoniushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10273209983337706262noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28018475.post-57422309932805670902008-04-03T19:09:00.000+01:002008-04-03T19:09:00.000+01:00oh my word, he isn't even Catholic?!

In Latin, of course.<BR/><BR/>Lord Have Mercy<BR/>Christ Have Mercy<BR/>Lord Have Mercy<BR/><BR/>Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace to men of good will...<BR/><BR/>Et cetera.<BR/><BR/>Bach didn't have the opportunity to infuse heretical theology into his works. Haugen does. <BR/><BR/>I don't care what you believe, but if you're going to write for a Catholic Mass, you need to follow the rules. "Jesus bread of liiiffe, you take away the sins of the wooorrrld" is N-O-T the Agnus Dei. Not now, not ever.<BR/><BR/>Now, let's talk about how Haugen and others like him have *no* musical skill.<BR/>No, let's not. <BR/><BR/>We have a treasury of unbelievably beautiful Catholic music, yet the most used crap at any given Mass is tuneless garbage by non-Catholics.<BR/>Go fig.Cathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15840370708098022422noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28018475.post-19572194694323716562008-04-02T23:11:00.000+01:002008-04-02T23:11:00.000+01:00That explains a lot.That explains a lot.Volpius Leoniushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10273209983337706262noreply@blogger.com
