I had this from a reader:
Beginning Monday, November 30th there will be a new daily Low Mass (in the extraordinary form of the Roman Rite) every weekday at 6:00 PM at the Church of the Holy Innocents in Manhattan.

“This blog is rather like a fusion of the Baroque ‘salon’ with its well-tuned harpsichord around which polite society gathered for entertainment and edification and, on the other hand, a Wild West “saloon” with its out-of-tune piano and swinging doors, where everyone has a gun and something to say. Nevertheless, we try to point our discussions back to what it is to be Catholic in this increasingly difficult age, to love God, and how to get to heaven.” - Fr. Z

I know this Church and know they occasionally had a weekend (I think it was Satursay) Mass according to the 1962 Missal. Is there now a regular set time on Sunday for Mass in the Usus Antiquor at Holy Innocents? Any info would be appreciated.
The Saturday 1 PM EF Mass has been a regular occurrence there for about a year and a half (the Mass was previously held at Our Lady of Good Counsel on E 90th & 1st Av on the Upper East Side). Maybe once or twice a month they would offer a Missa Cantata. In fact, with very little fanfare the first Ember Saturday Sung Masses in perhaps over a generation were celebrated there this past year.
Here are links to some sound files from those two Ember Saturdays; as you will hear, it’s a wonderful place to experience a sung Mass:
Saturday in Ember Week, Lent 2009
Saturday in Ember Week / Octave of Pentecost 2009
No word on a Sunday EF Mass at Holy Innocents, though the neighborhood is covered on Sunday by EF Masses at Our Saviour (Park and E 38th) at 9 AM and St. Agnes (E 43rd btwn 3rd and Lexington) at 11 AM.
Thanks for the update and I have been to St.Agnes many times since Our Lady does not offer it anymore..But the Latin Mass at Our Saviour is a Latin Novus Ordo I believe. I stand to be corrected if misinformed.
Mitchell,
The 9:00 Mass at Church of Our Saviour is TLM. It started about a year ago. The 11:00 Mass is Solemn Novus Ordo. Also, for the past two years there has been a Low Mass every Sunday at 8;30 a.m. in the Bronx – Church of Our Lady of Mount Carmel in Belmont.
