That’s what you get from most priests and lay administrators when you ask them, “Why don’t we do more chant? It’s what the Council called for, after all.” I really don’t understand what’s harder about Gregorian Chant than any piece they use by Haugen. Is it the Latin? Well, if so, my reply would be this: Even a baby can do it.
And that’s no exaggeration – watch this three-year-old sing the Sanctus. If it weren’t so early, I’d make a comparison between liberals and babies, but I lack the awakeness to do that – you can form your own metaphor based off of my sentiments.
