Corpus Christi Watershed

Pope Saint Paul VI (3 April 1969): “Although the text of the Roman Gradual—at least that which concerns the singing—has not been changed, the Entrance antiphons and Communions antiphons have been revised for Masses without singing.”

Bishop Conley Sings “Salve Regina” With A Whole Pack Of Bishops

·

OW OFTEN do you see a whole pack of bishops sitting around singing Gregorian chant? A reader sent the following footage which shows Bishop Conley leading his fellow bishops in the Salve Regina. By the way, I love how he blesses the family afterward, too: so inspiring! And we certainly need inspiration in this sad world of ours!


I know, I know … it’s the 16th century Salve Regina instead of the authentic Medieval one. But it’s the version everybody knows!

P.S.

Bishop Conley is a great promoter of beauty.
