In which case her chant is certainly ostentatious.<br /><br />Perhaps, Fr Allan, she is the one who performs this function in your church. She is in a photograph you posted, bare arms and all.

Sometimes the problem is the translation, or reading what was spoken. But I agree with your description of ostentatious. When on vacation and I attend Mas, I have to close my eyes and pretend it is ad orientem for the reasons you describe.<br /><br />And don't get me started on contemporary music which is the very description of ostentatious with its loud multi instrument 馃幐 music, Curley cues and the like. Gregoria's Chant is not ostentatious! Have you heard music for ordinations for any of the three degrees? Talk about ostentatious triumphalism which Gregoria's Chant would neutralize!Fr. Allan J.

Is it ostentatious to face the altar along with the congregation and move slowly and deliberately, or is it ostentatious to make eye contact with parishioners, grin at them, and place chairs so that they face the nave instead of inward toward the altar? Is it ostentatious to chant and play the organ off to one side, or is it ostentatious to have a would-be James Taylor front and center on his guitar and a cantor prod the congregation along with arm gestures when they are to make the responses? Is it ostentatious to follow the rubrics and no more, or is it ostentatious to meddle and fabricate collects and Eucharistic prayers extemporaneously? Is it ostentatious to stand at the pulpit, or is it ostentatious to wander around with a microphone? At the risk of being too on the nose, is it ostentatious to do what has come before and wear what has been worn before, or is it ostentatious to draw attention to oneself as one pointedly refuses to do so?<br /><br />One longs for the linguistic precision Benedict XVI or the bold directness of John Paul II.

Cross the street from West to East and you might feel as though you are watching a show of which you are not always part. Honestly, it's a blessing at times as, anymore, I read and still comment here about frustrations with the Roman liturgy that have no effect on the Eastern Churches (at least, not the Byzantine Churches). VII began the process of separating our liturgies allowing for the removal of Latinizations that, over time, had crept in. We are heading back toward our roots and it's a happy journey indeed.
