Have you ever watched the N.O. Mass on EWTN? It is quite beautiful, IMO.

Having read Sacrosanctum Concilium (the Vatican II document on Liturgy) I can say it is a fairly reasonable document. Having said that I must say that the Novus Ordo Mass does not adhere to much of it.

I read Sacrosanctum Concilium as well and I do think the Novus Ordo adheres to it - it is some of the priests who do not adhere to it.

Some of the priests? I have yet to attend a Novus Ordo that has "retained the use of Latin" or given "Gregorian chant pride of place in liturgical services".
