Hey hon! I sorry I not been talking for so long, but my business, Veritas Vestments is going real fast like one of the bulls that is running through the streets of Pamplona. You are asking me about when I am getting married to Augusto. This is not so good right now. Augusto is having problems. Better not talk about this right now hon. Okay? So I am visiting my cousins in America when they take me to the school Mass for the little ones. I am amazed. The children are singing loud and clear and you know what they are singing hon? Chant music. I think it comes from this monastery in France called Tevye or Dizzy or something like this. So it is very beautiful and the words are in Latin and the children, they love this quiet beautiful music. Then the next week I am visiting some other friends and they take me to another Mass for their children and it is not so good. Up front of the church is a woman and a man who are wearing clothes that are too tight, and I have to tell you hon, it would be difficult to find clothes for those two that are NOT too tight. So they are playing guitars and singing folk songs with the children about Jesus shining and gathering together. But I am noticing hon, that none of the children are singing. It is only the old fat people who are singing. So I am thinking about this and you know something? Read More<\/a><\/p>\n

Go here<\/a> for a post on banal hymns at Mass. \u00a0 Here<\/a> are more moanings and musings on bad church music.\u00a0To be more positive, some time ago I wrote a four part series on what makes a good hymn.Here\u2019s<\/a>\u00a0the first part.\u00a0 Here\u2019s<\/a>\u00a0part two,\u00a0 here\u2019s<\/a>\u00a0the third and\u00a0 here\u2019s<\/a>\u00a0the fourth.<\/p>\n
