Beautiful mass - considering how it was outside and within the village context and yet onto the Lord.

Beautiful mass - considering how it was outside and within the village context and yet onto the Lord.This may not be to everyone's taste, but I find this Mass to be very cool.

This is one of the many reasons I was pulled away from "latin" rite, the DL is ancient and traditional. The vernacular mass is lacking the spirituality that I am looking for, the DL is very very special.
I don't know about "normal" but the last time I went to the local Roman Catholic Church for a funeral mass they played Frank Sinatra's "I Did It My Way" for the communion hymn.

For there are many other Mass services done in Brazil by the same church in view that aren't the same as the one in the video you noted - many of which are as solem as the Orthodox service.
Moreover, as it concerns dancing, I'd think it'd be more accurate to show Orthodox services that actually do dance if trying to make a real comparision.

I may be picking at semantics here, but by "vernacular" do you mean in the local language or just the "new" post-Vatican II Novus Ordo Mass? If the latter then I wholeheartedly agree, but if the former then I have to disagree as I've seen some reverent Masses in English (they're very rare but they do exist).
oh there is no doubt it's getting worse. I remember there was a creepy puppet ministry thing that some churches were doing (even those that you would not think would do something like that)
Abbot: I will perform the opening prayer in the New Latin. Oh ordlay, ivethgay usway ouryay essingsblay. Amen-ay!
Crowd: AMEN-AY!
Fozzy, Grover, Kermit, and Miss Piggy were altar servers and Professor Honeydew played the priest. The two grumpy old men in the balcony Muppets were the Eucharistic extraordinary ministers while Animal was the music director!
nice Mel Brooks reference!
google it, muppets would have been muuuuuuuuuch better choice. the puppets they used were like giant, creepy looking marionettes (spelling?)
More than agree with you when it comes to the ways that simplicity helps for showing great principles - it does hit the mark.The simplicity of the instruments, the dress, the voices and the clapping has such a spiritual effect imho that hits the mark! Nothing is secular about it just "joyful" as the psalm says "praise the Lord with joyful voice and with instruments" (not a literal quote) Music and voice to offer hymns to the Lord is allowed! But reducing this to a secular level with an intend to offer a show it not!

never been to a Catholic church, never been to a Mass, but I have to ask...if you have a mass or a liturgy that's worked for centuries.....why change it?

Oh my....I think this is the video you're thinking of:

This was done by the group "Call to Action," a heretical ultra-liberal splinter of the RCC which being a member of will get you excommunicated in at least one RCC diocese. They are decidedly not part of the RCC.
That said, take away the puppets, dancing, and someone who isn't the priest giving the homily, and this could pass for a run-of-the-mill RC Mass.
yeah that is the one, and I know it is not mainstream, but it's creeping in there. I know there is some ultra liberal offshoot of Lutheranism that practices Sophia Rosaries, to the Goddess side of God or something.
