The Council of Trent reaffirmed traditional Christian teaching that the Mass is the same Sacrifice of Calvary offered in an unbloody manner. People forget what is going on there. The reverence is missing as people celebrate. MountainBunny said it right, “I’m Roman Catholic. If the Transubstantiation isn’t enough to hold your attention, I’m not sure what to tell you.”
Introducing new music is fine. Introducing a new song every week is over kill. I went to a church on Thanksgiving where the Music Director introduced the new song before Holy Mass and had a practice with the congregation. No prayertime in that church before Mass.
The music is not that important to those in the pew. Especially those who are trying to pray after communion. The happy praise music gets in the way.
Like liturgical committees, Choir Directors aren’t always making things better.
We have a parish that sings, because we don’t have a group of people doing it for us.
But good, reverent, meditative music performed in a sensitive manner is an aid to prayer for many people.
Some folks just don't like music at all, and for them there is the early Mass. Other folks find that music is helpful to their worship, and inspiring. For them there is the 11:30 High Mass. It's great that the parish has something for each.
