Talk:Catholic liturgy

Youth liturgy

There are many articles dedicated to the specifics of liturgy, but I feel that there should at least be a stub on the topic of Youth liturgy, which has often been controversial because of conservative-liberal culture wars within the Church. (cf [1]) ADM (talk) 03:36, 31 January 2009 (UTC)

Concerts in the Roman Catholic Church

On November 5, 1987, the Congregation for Divine Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments published the pastoral instruction titled Concerti nelle chiese (in English: Concerts in the Churches). On the Diocese of Como's is freely available the pdf with its original text (archived on March 30, 2021). It would be useful to have the English version of this document which is still in force in the whole Roman Catholic Church and thus it has been surely translated in multiple languages.

The main innovations were the following:

• it is generically specified the music must be respectful of the sanctity of the House of God as it is qualified by the eucharistic real presence of Jesus Christ God in the Blessed Sacrament. Previously, Masonic music were banned and couldn't be played anytime and anywhere within the Roman Catholic Church, since the Freemasonry had been defined by Pope St Pius X' encyclical Etsi multa as the "Synagogue of Satan". The original Latin text is available on vatican.va. In an analogue way, Freemasons were excluded from all the Sacraments, including the Roman Catholic burial. Not solely Woytjla reformed the sacred liturgy, liberalizing all king of musics in a holy place, but also he abolished the excomunication for Freemasonry'members from the 1983 Code of Canon Law.
• entrance must be free and free of charge;
• presbyterium can't be used for musical execution;
• the Most Blessed Sacrament can be temporary moved in a secondary chapel for the sole duration of the concert;
• the church can't be used for music festivals or musical events other than one shot concert;

toscanaoggi.it has a more detailed explanation.

It seems not to be suitable to cite the Italian documents in the current WP article. So I modestly wish this topic could be useful for recovering the English text of the 1987 pastoral instruction and an useful episcopal explanation of it. Best regards, Micheledisaviosp/Philosopher81sp

Regardless the past, if there were no obstative reasons. I would like to register a new user account on the sole English Wikipedia. Hope someone will want to help. Thanks again.
