Got the following in the old e-mail bag:


You were right to be concerned. The Traditionalist Sermons are from Society of St. Pius X (SSPX) folks. While we are making some progress towards a restoration of unity, and while there's much good in what they say, we are not yet fully one. I would recommend not listening to the Traditionalist Sermons unless you are well aware of the issues surrounding the SSPX.

In an case, enjoy the rest! Thanks for the tip, Bonne!

UPDATE: According to the combox, "It is Bp. Daniel Dolan's church, he is a straight-up Thuc-line sedevacanist." In other words, DANGER, Will Robinson! DANGER!

So this is a bit embarrassing. Some of the finest free Catholic chant on MP3 I've found is here, on an Anglican website. Awkward!
Here's a sample, but hit the jump for the rest:

• Kyrie eleison, Mass in G - Franz Schubert: Download
• Gloria in excelsis, Mass in G - Franz Schubert: Download
• Credo, Mass in G - Franz Schubert: Download
• Sanctus, Mass in G - Franz Schubert: Download
• Benedictus, Mass in G - Franz Schubert: Download
• Agnus Dei, Mass in G - Franz Schubert: Download
• Motet, Panis angelicus - César Franck: Download
• Motet, O Salutaris Hostia - César Franck: Download
• Motet, Tantum ergo Sacramentum - Maurice Duruflé: Download
• Motet, Laudate Dominum - Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart: Download

Very nice. Enjoy!

Yup. A Cajun version of the Ave Maria. It's pretty darn good, too! Give it (and several other tracks) a listen and, if that's the one you choose, get the MP3 for free -- all you need is an e-mail address for them to send it to.

Via Faith & Family.

A friend of mine from Our Lady's University (GO IRISH!!) who has always been far more mystical than me recently sent me an e-mail about the Eastern Rite folks (who get far too little press, if you ask me). Here's the skinny:

I have just been listening to Light of the East Radio after I met a monk that contributes to the show, Father Maximos. They do shows about Eastern Catholicism. It reminded me of your site, and I am going to start listening again.

By the way, there is an excellent series on that site that Fr. Maximos did a few years back. It starts with Broadcast 200 ("Recovering a Sacramental World View - Part I of IV: Is a Sacrament a Thing or an Event?". Guest Host: Father Maximos) and goes through 203. You should listen to it and perhaps link it.

The folks at LatinMassSchedule.com have put their sermons online. I haven't had a chance to check them out yet, so if you give them a listen would you please let the rest of us know what you think?

Oh, and they also have some video, like this one of the rubrics of the traditional low mass:

Resurrexit, sicut dixit!

If you've never heard the Exultet, do give it a listen.

In Latin:

With a big ol' hat tip to Mark Shea, here's a link to St. Antoine Daniel Gregorian Chant Ordinaries.

Some simply beautiful chant. For example:


Go. Let your ears drink their fill.

I'm guessing most of the folks who come here have heard of Father Z. In case you haven't, or in case you've heard of him but have just never given his PodcaZt a listen, now is a fine time to tune in.

Now I know we're a few days in already, but you've gotta' hear some of these:


056 08-05-12 Octaves – Fr. Z rants & Augustine on Pentecost – PENTECOST MONDAY
057 08-05-13 John Paul II on the unforgivable sin; Our Lady of Fatima and the vision of Hell – TUESDAY
058 08-05-14 Ember Days; Chrysostom on St. Matthias; Prayer to the Holy Spirit – WEDNESDAY
059 08-05-15 Leo the Great on Pentecost fasting; Benedict XVI’s sermon for Pentecost SundayTHURSDAY
060 08-05-16 Pentecost customs; St. Ambrose on the dew of the Holy Spirit – FRIDAY
061 08-05-17 Pope Leo I on a post-Pentecost weekday; Fr. Z rambles not quite aimlessly for a while – SATURDAY –


Here's a link to the rest of Fr. Z's stuff. Now go find out how much about Catholicism you still don't know...

Reader Richard R. sent in a link to a page of FSSP sermons. Below are just a few of the sermons linked on that page -- go here for the full Monty.

UPDATE: Some folks in the combox are speculating about these speakers' fidelity to the post-V2 Church. Feel free to chime in.

UPDATED UPDATE: Audio Sancto chimed in and put the matter to rest -- it's all good. Also, Audio Sancto pointed to the linking terms of use, which include the following provision (FYI):

• If you can, please say three Hail Mary's for the priests who preach these sermons, and ask others to do the same

Roger WilCo!

A few people have written in recently and pointed me to the Audio Sancto Sermon Series. Since there's really some great stuff there, I've been meaning to do a series of several posts where I break down the talks by topic. Unfortunately, I just can't seem to find the time. Rather than keep holding on to these gems, I figured I'd just share the link. To give you an idea of what's there, here are the links from the front page:

I don't know who these folks are, but I stumbled on a site hosting their talks so I decided to post them. It's a gamble, but we'll see if it pays off. In any case, I couldn't find the seventh deadly sin (Envy, btw) in their talks but I was able to find the other six. If they turn out to be any good, I'll post some more -- of course, you could always just beat me there and just get them yourself if you're impatient. Heh.

UPDATE: Apparently these priests are SSPX schismatics. Just so ya' know.

UPDADED UPDATE: The SSPX bishops are no longer formally excommunicated...they're just not in full communion yet.

Without further ado, here they are:
