A few photos from the concert of the Regensburger Domspatzen in the Sistine Chapel on Saturday in reply #19.

In his remarks afterward, the Pope told the boys of this famous choir that they were blessed to be able to sing the praises of God in the awesome scenery of the Sistine Chapel. Ain't that the truth? ;-)

If the average musical artist (and I use the word "artist" very loosely) in Europe is like the average musical artist in the US, then they are probably not even aware of the Christian musical heritage of Europe/Western Civilization. Plus the distinction between the sacred and the profane has been minimized to the point of being nonexistent for all practical purposes.
