Ave Maria! Found this on Gloria.tv from our Mass in the Lateran Basilica on April 16, 2009, 800th anniversary of the approbation of the Rule of St Francis which took place at … this very basilica. Enjoy!
Highlights from the Solemn High Mass according to the Extraordinary Form, celebrated in Saint John Lateran Basilica, by the Franciscan Friars and Sisters of the Immaculate. All sacred music sung by the Friars and Sisters (Polyphony and Gregorian Chant) This is the first time that the traditional Mass has been celebrated in the pope’s chair since Vatican II.

Well, it has been a busy week or so in the news for the FI’s in regard to our accelerating adoption of the Extraordinary Form (EF) of the Mass. Starting last week February 27 we were featured on Fr. Zuhlsdorf’s blog and picked by the New Liturgical Movement about upcoming EF Masses involving the FIs. The first will be the ordinations of five FIs in our friary in Tarqinia, Italy on the 25th of March, the Annunciation. They will be ordained by Bishop Raymond Burke, recently made head of the Roman Apostolic Signatura and he will be celebrating the Mass in the Extraordinary Form.

Fiddleback chasubles and Franciscan sandals come together in the extraordinary form of the Mass (Traditional Latin Mass) at Our Lady of Guadalupe Friary of the Franciscans of the Immaculate. The video is put to beautiful music from the Franciscan Sisters of the Immaculate, our sister order. The music was recorded in Italy and is a fine testimony to the high quality of their music program which, combined with the friar’s, is playing a major part in spearheading the liturgical music reform in Italy.
