I think you're right. High church is liturgical. Low church is not.

Within the Episcopal church, High church is more formal in all of its ceremonies. Low church is less formal, but not less liturgical. All use one of the rites from the Book of Common Prayer to ensure all the elements of the service are included. But they may use more or fewer servers at the altar, more or fewer lay people, incense or no, organs or guitars, etc.

Shalom.
