Poretti \/ music: L. Casani) with the Refrain: \u201cScendi su noi ancora, \/ Spirto creatore: \/ per te sorride il mondo, \/ per te renasce l\u2019uomo.\u201d (Descend upon us again, Creator Spirit: through you the world revives; through you, human beings are born again.\u201d).\u00a0 John 14:15-17 was proclaimed in Italian followed by a brief time of silence.\u00a0 The leader invited the community to chant the Lord\u2019s Prayer in Latin and concluded the service with a collect in Italian and the following dialogue: \u201cLavoriamo in pace.\u00a0 Nel nome di Cristo.\u201d (Let us work in peace.\u00a0 In the name of Christ.).<\/p>\n<p>Fr. Peter McGeary, an Anglican priest serving in parish work in London, presented the first major address: \u201cSacrosanctum Concilium 50 years on: reflections from an Anglican.\u201d\u00a0 He noted that \u201csome ideas promoted by Sacrosanctum Concilium had already been part of Anglican life for centuries such as the celebration of the liturgy in the vernacular, the reform or simplification of the breviary, or daily office, and the restoration of the cup to the laity\u2026. In these aspects, Anglicans tended to think that Roman Catholics were just catching up on what we put into practice four years earlier.\u00a0 But there were other changes to liturgical life which we Anglican learned from the Vatican 2 reforms.\u00a0 I will mention two: the shape and ethos of the liturgy, including the development of roles of ministers and people in worship and the reform of the Church Year and Lectionary.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Fr. Giuseppe Ruggieri, Professor emeritus of theology in Catania and author of Ritrovare il Concilio (Rediscover the Council) published\u00a0 in 2012 by Einaudi of Turn, offered \u201cInterpretazioni del Vaticano II,\u201d in which he attempts to answer the question \u201cWhat was Vatican II, really?\u201d\u00a0 To that end, 1) he clarifies the \u201cglobal\u201d interpretations of the Council offered by theologians and historians; 2) and by the churches.\u00a0 He then 3) tries to establish the situation of the Church at the present, in order to 4) return to a brief comparative analysis of the interpretations.\u00a0 He concludes 5) by putting forward his own reading of Vatican II and what it still means for the Church today.<\/p>\n<p>After lunch and a music rehearsal for Evening Prayer and Mass the next day, the membership was treated to a fascinating report on some 20 liturgical songs \u201cfrom a Belgian viewpoint,\u201d many of which we sang through under the direction of a small instrumental ensemble.\u00a0 The compositions were chosen to illustrate the influence of 1) popular music; 2) Negro spirituals (in French!); 3) jazz (!); 4) Byzantine chant (especially Andre Gouzes\u2019 music); and 5) Baroque and classical music, as well as songs with accompanying bodily gestures, intercultural initiatives (a Thanksgiving song sung in Swahili [refrain] and French [verses]), and some contemporary compositions.\u00a0 While many of these pieces could be transplanted fairly easily into some North American\u00a0 worshiping communities, some (such as Didier Rimaud\u2019s exquisite \u201cPourquoi l\u2019homme\u201d) would demand much of the translator: \u201cPourquoi le vent, S\u2019il ne s\u00e8me au hazard? \/ Pourquoi la mer, si ce n\u2019est pour le sable? \/ Pourquoi le feu, s\u2019il ne prend aux broussailles? \/ Et pourquoi l\u2019homme\u2026. Pourquoi le pain, S;il n\u2019est jamais rompu? \/ Pourquoi le sang, s\u2019il n\u2019emplit nulle coupe? \/ Pourquoi le corps, S\u2019il ne dit la parole? \/ Et pourquoit l\u2019homme?\u201d (Why the wind if it sows randomly? Why the sea, is it is not for sand?\u00a0 Why the fire, if it does not scrub?, And why human beings?&#8230;.Why the bread, if it is never broken? \/ Why the blood if it fills no cut? \/ Why the body, if it does not speak the word? And why human beings?\u201d).<\/p>\n<p>After discussion on the morning\u2019s presentations in respective language groups, the East European\/German group led us in Evening Prayer (mostly in English).\u00a0 Beginning with the usual \u201cGod, come to my assistance\u201d dialogue, we sang, standing, a Taiz\u00e9 composition \u201cVenite, exultemus Domino\u201d and sat to sing a Psallite setting of Psalm 103 with the antiphon \u201cMerciful and tender, faithful is the Lord\u201d and each of the succeeding verses of the Psalm sung to a psalm-tone in a different language: English, German, Italian, French, and Slovak (I think).\u00a0 James 3:17-18 was proclaimed in German, English, French, Italian, Slovak and Russian, followed by prayer in silence.\u00a0 The intercessions were offered in German, Dutch, English, Italian, French, Russian, and Czech, with a litanic refrain sung SATB \u201cExaudi nos, exaudi nos\u201d after the cantor\u2019s cue: \u201cTe rogamus, audi nos.\u201d\u00a0 We then sang the Lord\u2019s Prayer in Latin chant, heard the collect for the feast of St. Bernard in English, and experienced the usual blessing text \u201cMay the Lord bless us.\u201d\u00a0 To conclude Evening Prayer we again sang a Taiz\u00e8 ostinato: \u201cSanctum nomen Domini magnificat anima mea.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The day ended with a listening-singing session at which I presented certain examples of musical inculturation from my Missa ad Gentes, Reghina Nadkrenicinaia presented a setting of \u201cThis is my commandment\u201d by Georg Gsel sung in Russian as an example of relatively recent (1990) music sung by all Russian Christians from Poland to Kazakhstan, Alan Smith presented the Penitential Act and Lamb of God from his Holy Redeemer Mass, and Gr\u00e9gory Notebaert presented an Offertory round with cantus firmus bass and a setting of Penitential Act B with Kyrie eleison in French and Greek.<\/p>\n<p>As the reader might guess, it was a very full day, but rich in shared prayer, opportunities for conversation over meals, and a true appreciation for diverse cultural expressions of our common faith.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It was a very full day, but rich in shared prayer, opportunities for conversation over meals, and a true appreciation for diverse cultural expressions of our common faith.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":17,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"_wpas_customize_per_network":false},"categories":[20],"tags":[2335],"class_list":["post-21169","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-music-general","tag-universa-laus"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 -
