However,...I would LOVE it if this were really true. However, sources I have read imply that (bizarre as it may seen) only NON-liturgical music/hymns may be sung at Low Mass. I thought that singing the Propers or Ordinary (during the corresponding parts) was forbidden. For example:<br /><br />http://www.musicasacra.com/pdf/lowmass.pdf<br /><br /><br />If this is not true, I would love that (it certainly would make "fuller" Masses that nevertheless can't reach the level of a Sung Mass more feasible!)<br /><br />I would also point out the implication that IF the Propers and/or Ordinary ARE allowed to be sung ("extra-liturgically" by the congregation or whatever) during a Low or Read Mass, then the jump to singing them ("extra-liturgically") in the VERNACULAR (as if they were just English hymns) would by the same logic be allowed too (which might be a way to, essentially, create an English Old Rite Mass by layering "unofficial" English propers and ordinary "over" a Latin Low Mass, which might be a way to "ease people into" traditional liturgy who are used to the Novus Ordo and vernacular).<br /><br />But, alas, I have my doubts whether this is true. If you could find a source that proves it is, I'd be very happy to see it.A Sinnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05083094677310915678noreply@blogger.com
