I also noticed an organ in the background during various interviews with his brother and he grew up in a musical home. Perhaps we’ll see an emphasis put on improving the quality of music in parishes and an increase in singing chant in Latin. -
I saw that video and it made my heart smile. I hope he writes an encyclical to recommend a removal of all the insufferable folk music that has plagued the liturgy for far too long!
