Sisters and Brothers!
There is such beauty in God's world! There is even beauty in some "modern" music. Take for example Mr. Franz Biebl's Angelus. Check out the video bars! or if you are seated, or kneeling , check out Alfredo Kraus [the kneeling Catholic in the 2nd video bar], who by the way kneels for our Lord's mother in supplication as he sings Gounod's Ave Maria. I love the way he sings from the heart [no sheet music in his hands-it is his prayer]! [[ignore the second video, I haven't figured out how to delete it. ]]
Part of modern liturgists' crime as they beat truly banal music into our children's and into our heads is that this comes at the expense of us being blessed by genuinely beautiful art which reflects a beautiful Faith as well as expresses our Communion with those who came before us.
Pray for me.
