If I recall correctly, the Confiteor before communion is optional in the 1962 Mass, not proscribed.

Edit: The DVD is for sale on EWTN’s site. 90 minutes?!?!?!
 
I am! It’s what I been waiting to see for a long time. I do have one question though. What did the Father at the foot of the Alter put the cloth in front of his face for?
 
Hope all is well with you Dave!
No obvious signs of prostate cancer. Awaiting the microscopic analysis. However, something ruptured and I lost about a liter of blood after we got home–wound up going back to the ER in an ambulance. However, that’s another story.

If it’s 90 minutes, they’ve cut something out. They just finished the Second Gospel, and I’m looking at 110 minutes.
 
Mybe because they had a month to plan it? I’m sure it doesn’t take a month to look up the proper rubrics. Unless, of course, you are suggesting that the FSSP normatively engages in liturgical abuse (in which case, you should substantiate your claim with evidence).
It is a legitimate question of concern as has been noted here (and elsewhere) by some, considering that they thought it proscribed. It, therefore, deserves a clarification and citation of justification by those employing its usage if it is a legitimate option under the 1962 missal.

The “liturgical abuse?”, obviously, is intended as a humorous satirical jostle considering the possibility that they are, indeed, doing something improper or at least atypical of the actual original era’s common usuage, considering the hypersensitivity which many here have to such delicts, though usually in the NO.
 
I have a link to the Homily to DL in MP3 format on my blog click the link in my sig

just FYI
 
Oh my! I just watched the 6:00 viewing in its entirety! How beautiful!! I cried through part of it! So Christ-centered!
 
I saw parts of the program.

I am sufficiently old that I remember the Latin mass when it was the mainstream mass of the church.

This mass was quite atypical from the average mass back in the traditional era.

Back in the 60s the usual standard was low mass. Low mass is very quiet, as is celebrated without singing. A very different, and more contemplative , experience than what the people saw on EWTN this afternoon. As a youth in traditional times, I can’t remember ever hearing high mass on Sunday morning, only the low mass.

If you were a kid your parents probably avoided high Mass. I have heard of people coming in only to find out that it was a High Mass, turn around and leave!
 
I watched the beginning before I had to go to work, but I am curious that they did not show the asperges, the rite of sprinkling with holy water. All the TLM’s I’ve been to have the asperges. Could you enlighten me. I know it is not formally a part of the mass so perhaps it was not telivised.

I taped it to watch later on. I thouroughly enjoy the TLM and hope that EWTN televises many more.

God Bless!
The Asperges is sung only before the principal Mass on Sundays.
 
I saw the late afternoon replay.

The vestments were very ornate, as I remember them from the late 50s and early 60s. Everybody was very reverent and precise. And there was a lady with a really nifty white hat that I would wear if forced to wear a hat (I did notice there were those ladies who did not and still participated).

OK…Other than being very happy for Mother Angelica and the sisters that they got this televised, and the fact that it was Mass which is always a good thing, I fail to see the big deal of theExtraordinary Mass. It did not move me to any more reverence than a reverent Ordinary Use Mass.

If I were attending an EO Mass, I think I would be in the category of those who prefer a low Mass.

I really prefer the reverent venacular of Paul VI.

For me it did and almost brought me to tears with the reverence displayed. I’m a yougin and love the TLM. 👍

Thank you for the link. It was good to be able to hear Fr. Goodwin’s sermon. He had told us last month that he would be preaching.
 
I watched the live Traditional Latin Mass from EWTN this morning it was absolutely wonderful and great. The sermon from the FSSP priest is really touching and well delivered. I hope the TLM may spread worlwide.
