**The changes needed for the N.O. include things like architecture which refocuses on the vertical dimension, on the return of the tabernacle to the center of our focus, the curtailment of Sacred wine at every Mass when it was intended as an occasional thing and probably by intinction only. I could go on and on.**

I could agree with these. How about the music. I would like to have that be more sacred.

You'll love this site. I have given it out to a number of musicians who are tired of the Oregon music in Gather and so on and their hearts all skip a beat. There is a growing force in "musica sacra" and Schola Cantora are being formed all around the country in what mimics the "home school movement."

Check the Adoremus hymnal, Salvation. It is beautiful and samples of the music are displayed. One can find it on the Adoremus website.
