It's been a long time since I've visited the forum but, having read the posts above, I feel I have to make my mark too. In my diocese the music network extended to over 170 contacts with the database being updated every two years. Every year the committee would run at least two workshops with a spec...

Re: On a slightly different tack.......

Does anyone on this Forum know how to put the clock forward? I'm afraid the forum works by GMT but don't forget that this is the World Wide Web so people could be contributing from anywhere where there is an internet connection! I've just come back from a retreat and the Palm Sunday Mass opened wit...

Re: Liturgically Inappropriate?

"Inspired by Love and Anger" It's a very powerful hymn - whether it is appropriate or not lies in how and when you propose to use it. If we are talking in reference to a Mass then I can't really see it having a relevant place anywhere except as a "sending forth" song after the dismissal. Justice, M...

Re. unsuitable texts

Thanks for adding more detail, VML. My understanding is that there is a distinction which can be made between the liturgical action of the Fraction Rite - which is when the Lamb of God litany affirms Christ's real presence in the Body and Blood - and the Communion Procession [another liturgical acti...

Full Stop

Hi guys, I wonder whether you've looked at the tread title recently? There was a genuine call for people to draw our attention to examples of music which is liturgically useful. I'm locking this thread now so you'll have to start a new one. Might I suggest that you reduce the scope of your discussio...

Liturgically Inappropriate Music

Hi everyone, This thread has been started because I'm concerned that some members are treading on dodgy ground. Let's get this straight from the outset - there is music around which many would not touch but please don't assume that everyone shares your views on good or bad. Let's not turn this into ...

Greetings. If anyone is confused about the above conversation but would like to take a look at the document it started with, you can pick it up as a .pdf file from: http://www.catholic-ew.org.uk/liturgy/PDF/RMcomposers.pdf . It's 19 pages long so allow yourself a bit of time to digest its contents.
