What can you say? Simply stunning in every respect. Many thanks for posting this Agnus Dei, and for any others you may wish to post of this truly magnificent service on here.
This is a good reminder that there are far greater things in life than consumer culture and non-stop entertainment. Humans have a deep need for transcendent meaning. Architecture, music and art once seriously addressed that basic human concern.
Non è una musica triste, è una musica tragica che esprime il mistero di un Dio che nel Figlio si annulla fino ad una condanna a morte scandalosa per togliere il peccato... Questo è veramente tragico e impossibile da capire.
I don't see how you can refer to it as a 'mass' Thomas Cranmer the protestant reforming Abp of Canterbury loathed the mass and any implication of the true (corporal) presence in the eucharist. And how about the chasuable? worn by the Dean. Anglicans really don't know what they are.....whether they're catholics or protestants!
Further to my previous comment any cleric who was caught celebrating this type of service (eg the mass) was executed in England during the reign of ( the Anglican) Elizabeth I usually by hanging, drawing and quartering!!!
Those dreary and sullen hymns reflect to me what Christian faith has now become: a religion without joy and substance. It seems they all are singing for the funeral of their own Creed. This modern sacred music is to the joyous hymns of yore what Francis Bacon is to Fra Angelico.
"Lamb of God...have mercy on us." Is it not appropriate that the mood is restrained and plaintive - as a contrast to the more joyful, exuberant parts of the service?? If it's all up-beat and simple it would be rather shallow/dull after a while??
Question. What exactly is it you are "looking" for in your "religion"? The "Lamb of God" - in itself makes reference to the sacrifice of animals that gave Jesus' own sacrifice context. Also, as Mark Wood mentions, should it not be restrained and plaintive? But you want a religion to be "joyful"? Sounds to me like you need another religion. The Christian message is and has always been that humanity is fallen, and is saved. But there is that repenting bit... recognizing one's sin (not joyous). Sounds to me like you are not really wanting or needing the Christian Faith. Find your own religion, I suggest.
I must admit that I am much of a formalist and for someone like me whose Faith is wilting, it is certainly not that kind of music that will arouse my vanishing Faith. However silly the comparison may sound, it is little like Monarchy against Republic. Le Duc de Castries was asked one day how he could compare Monarchy as against La République. He said that every woman dreamed of going to bed with the Duc d'Edimbourg (he said that some decades ago) but no one dreamed of doing the same with Le Président de la république.
+Jean -- instead of thinking this is sullen I prefer to see it as an evocation of the Mystery beyond human understanding. I envision a transcendence that does not conform to any human emotion or thought.

Please upload the rest of the service! I was at this service and would love to re-watch to whole service to relive the memory!

@@colinlavelle7806 The Elizabethan Church doesn't define what Anglicanism is today.

My brother in Christ, we're not trapped like flies in amber. Thomas Cranmer was a creature of his time and place.

Qué extraño que den la comunión si no creen que es el cuerpo y sangre de Jesús, sino un símbolo... Muy extraño de parte de la iglesia Anglicana...
