Gregorian Chants and Catholic Adulation.



I am researching Gregorian Chanting and Catholic Adulation in preparation for Indulgences, a performance, opening Thursday, April 14th, 2011, at Old School, Located at 1417 N. Second Street, between Jefferson & Master, Philadelphia, PA 19122.
The school was built in 1891 for St. Michael’s parish whose first church was the focal point of the Know-Nothing Riots.
Traditional Latin Mass filmed on Easter Sunday in 1941 at Our Lady of Sorrows church in Chicago. The film presents the ceremonies of the Missa Solemnis or Solemn High Mass in full detail with narration by then-Mgr. Fulton J. Sheen. Celebrated by Rev. J. R. Keane of the Order of Servites (hence the white habits and cowls), the ceremonies are accompanied by a full polyphonic choir, orchestra, and fifty Gregorian Chanters.
