I RECOGNIZED THIS PARTICULAR "GLORIA" (IX) FROM 2011 CHRISTMAS EVE AT THE VATICAN! I have been viewing these Midnight Masses from the Vatican for over 20 years and this is the FIRST TIME I have ever heard this particular Gloria sung at the Christmas Eve Mass. I was stunned when I heard it being sung and I thought to myself that the Holy Father specifically wanted this Gloria sung, as to give a subtle message to the Church and to the world (i.e., the implementation of "Summorum Pontificum"). :)

I get goosebumps everytime I hear this! Gloria in Excelsis Deo!

Pope emeritus Benedict have a good voice when chanting the prayers in Mass...though so far I never heard our current Pope Francis chant the prayers in Mass and even let the choir take his part in singing the Gloria...

[@flynnmudd9396]

I know that the Holy Father, Pope Francis, has some lung condition or health issue that prevents him from singing, or at least singing well.

Truly sublime...I teared up and I rarely ever cry; so beautiful...

Grande Papa Benedetto!!!❤❤

[@luiscuartas2336]

Es hermoso. Pero quisiera saber cuantos tipos de gloria hay, porque en estos días vi otro estilo de canto en una misa crismal de B.XVI.

[@Kontostephanos]

Excelente.

composed by mons. Domenico Bartolucci, old master of cappella musicale sistina after Lorenzo Perosi...
