Excerpt from Manual of Church Music: For Choirmasters and Organists Unfortunately the edict of our Sovereign Pontiff has been received by many in this country with misgivings as to the possibility of putting it into practice. I trust that this timid ity will be overcome by the help of your Manual and by the encouragement given by the happy results already obtained in those churches where the Reverend Pastors, in obedience to the Pope's orders, have courageously undertaken the desired reform, guided by methods more or less similar to the one you advocate in your boo-k. Indeed, it is to be deplored that in a country like this, where so much zeal is shown in promoting whatsoever tends to en hance the dignity, majesty, and sanctity of our Sacred Mys teries, any hesitation should exist in endeavoring to bring about such a necessary reform in church music. And the more so because if the Gregorian Chant may appear in some places difficult of execution, the same cannot be said of modern church music which is also permitted. For, whilst our Holy Father in the said M otu proprio regards Gregorian Chant as the only chant which possesses in the highest degree the quali ties proper to the Sacred Liturgy, yet, taking into consideration the progress which the art of music has made, admits also in the Church modern music, provided that it be sober and grave, containing nothing profane and in no way unworthy of the liturgical functions.
