    I was fortunate to be part of an EF "Nuptial" Mass at St. Boniface Church in Evansville IN on Saturday July 27. The couple had been planning for more than a year. It was a missa cantata with schola and organ.

    The ordo:

    Seating of the grandparents: Ave Maria Arcadelt
    Procession: Prelude to the Te Deum Charpentier
    Presentation of flowers to the Virgin: Flos Carmeli
    Introit: Deus Israel
    Gloria: Missa "cum jubilo"
    Grad: Uxor tua
    Alleluia: Mittat vobis Dominus
    Off: in te speravi (Organ improvised on chant after it was sung)
    Sanctus and Agnus Dei: Missa "cum jubilo:
    Comm: Ecce sic benedicetur
    "Ave Verum' Mozart
    rec: Toccata Dubois

    For the priest ( a dear friend), it was his first EF mass. He really worked hard.
    A very beautiful liturgy all in all.
    Thanked by 2gregp Mark M.

    It sounds grand and intense.
    (And God bless that priest!)

    Save the Liturgy, Save the World!
