Having seen the Good Friday liturgy done in an alb and a stole, I will let someone else argue as to whether the chasuble is necessary.

I would let others do the same. One of the authorities on the Extraordinary Form, when it was the only form, stated that the maniple was the Mass vestment. I am certain the alb and stole are mandatory but cannot cite a source. I would think the only good reason for omission of the chasuble would the lack of one. I would imagine most parish churches have one although red is probably the least used liturgucal colour. I would be surprised if a monastery did not have one let alone a set. The monks at Ampleforth Abbey (here) wore red Mass vestments

Looking quickly at the video, it appears it is only the celebrant wearing the red vestments. My memory is failing me, even though I’ve been attending every Good Friday since 2002, but if I recall, I do believe that the abbot wears a red chasuble. He is the celebrant at the abbey’s Good Friday liturgy. There’s no concelebration at a Good Friday liturgy as there is no eucharistic liturgy. The monk-priests definitely just wear their black habits/cowls and red stoles at communion.
If only the abbot vests for Mass it would fulfill the rubric in the Missal simply because he is the only celebrant at that liturgy.

I agree but the Liturgy we watched showed the abbot presiding and all he wore was a red stole over his cowl. I have just been back to their website to provide a link but as far as I can see they do not provide videos of what they previously livestreamed. Their website is here. Plus, they do not have a YouTube channel as far as I can tell.
To go back to my original OP I want to reiterate I am really asking what the rubrics are for this particular liturgy. It is not intended to be a particular question about this one monastery or a criticism of that community.

My Gregorian Missal says « The priest enters wearing red Mass vestments ». Since the other monk priests are just attending the liturgy and not directing it, presumably they interpret the rubric as meaning the celebrant priest.

I am not sure what that is unless it is just the name of a particular edition.My Gregorian Missal
That would be the abbot and he did not wear Mass vestments.presumably they interpret the rubric as meaning the celebrant priest.

The Gregorian Missal is published by Solesmes and is the missal for Sundays, feasts and solemnities that are in Gregorian chant. Hence no responsorial psalm which is replaced by the gradual.
It is a bilingual extract of the Graduale Romanum with either French, English, Italian and German translations alongside the Latin).
It includes the Mass propers and all settings of the Ordinary noted for chant.
