Did anyone see this mass this past week on EWTN? What were your thoughts?? I loved it

We had Bishop Boyea say the Pontifical High Mass several times while he was an auxillary bishop here in Detroit.Same here. I managed to tape that and the segment about St. John Cantius just before the encore presentation. I recognized a lot of the priests there, both on the altar and in the choir. Bishop Perry does great work, follows the rubrics with the highest precision.
By the way, did you catch the recessional hymn by any chance?



your best bet would to be to check EWTNs website. It would be in archives it is on the site. It will not be airing again. www.ewtn.comSince I missed this Mass, does anyone know if they will repeat or have it somewhere on their site to revisit? I can’t find it as of now. Born in 1964, I have never seen or been to a Latin Mass. Would love to though.

I would like to point out that the Latin Mass offered at The Basilica of the Assumption is the Ordinary Form of the Roman Rite in Latin. it is not the Extraordinary Form which was the Pontifical High Mass you saw on EWTN.if ur in baltimore at the Basilica of the Assumption on sundays they have a latin mass on sundays at 7:30 am and 9:am the paper just says latin so you would probably have to call the church to find out if it was a high or low mass pm me if u want the number i have the brochure, and the Basilica is magnificent
…The Missa Cantata doesn’t require a Deacon &/or Subdeacon, but usually has a Deacon, and sometimes even a Subdeacon (See Sancta Miss Video of Missa Cantata & Santa Missa Handbook for Altar Servers). Remember, most parishes still aren’t doing the EF, esp. in the L.A. Archdiocese…A High Mass (Latin:Missa solemnis) Is a Mass that requires both a Priest and a Deacon to celebrate. On the Mass Hirearchy it is by far the one with the most “Smells and Bells” with a large integration of Music and Responses from the Altar servers (Or if its a Dialogue Mass the Laity but thats the exception not the rule)
…One thing in the EF, the Movements are pretty strictly prescribed. There’s not much room for “experimentation” or “innovation” - The Sacred Ministers pretty much do what the Rubrics tell them to, or they will “fall off the rails” and “get called on it”…A Missa Cantata (Also called a Sung Low Mass) is a compromise between the High Mass and the Low Mass for parishes with out the benifit of having a Deacon but still wants to incorporate some Smells and Bells. Most Parishes which offer the Extrodinary form on Sunday will usually have some Version of a Missa Cantata. Expect alot of Gregorian Chant, Incense etc. Also the rubrics for when to kneel and stand are a bit different in a Missa Cantata then a Missa Solemnis
