Desdemona’s choir entered with the priest, singing these a capella, if I remember correctly.

Lent weeks 1-3. Laetare Sunday the organ was added back, as was the real Laetare chant, which was VERY warmly received among the more seasoned of the congregation. Five was a straight chant and Palm Sunday was "All Glory Laud and Honor". By the book.

That’s Marvelous!

Since the time our parish added the TLM, an all male chant choir has been added. Now, for Midnight Mass on Christmas, they chant in the midnight. No organ, just male voices until the last bell of midnight rings.

The first time I heard it, it gave me chills.
