“Given that Rorate Coeli and Shea are mad at Fr. Z, I think it proves Fr. Z knows what he is doing and he is right.”

"Let me be clear. Fr. Z is a shock jock, mostly. His readership is vast and touchy. They like to be provoked and react with speed and fury."

Looks like the Institute of Christ the King was largely involved: Father Karl Lenhardt is the Archpriest and Father Gilles Guitard is the Master of Ceremonies.
Also, there are two brief YouTube videos up from that Mass, with some superb polyphony:

For those of us who have never been to Rome, I wonder if there are any “virtual tours” of Saint Peter’s online. I tried the Vatican web site, but could not come up with anything. I would just like a clearer idea where this altar is located.
The word at Rorate is that people were prevented from attending, does anyone else know anything about this?
jbas,
It’s a chapel off the right-hand(northern)side of the basilica, before the transept.
As far as “brick by brick” is concerned, this seems like a pretty hefty brick!
Brick by brick. Imagine in less than two years a scene like this could happen at the concrete cathedral in Los Angeles. Let us pray.
Come on Holy Father you can do it too. We are not out of the woods yet, however a day of great victory.
Can someone explain to me what a Solemn Pontifical High Mass would look like with the Holy Father was presiding? How does this differ as Masses go what is needed?

Also did I see His Excellency Bp. Schneider in this You Tube video? Or is it just me? look closely.

Look at this site:

The Chapel of the Blessed Sacrament is number 72:

The papal mass is a very complex ceremony that stands out on many points from a pontifical high mass. I guess thats why we have not until this day seen The Holy Father celebrate the EF (something he did numerous times as a cardinal). You can read about it on wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Papal_Mass
Too cool
If they were prevented from attending it may be because the chapel was packed judging from the Photos.

My wife & I just missed the Mass, but we did meet the participants in Piazza San Pietro during the Angelus. God bless all of you in your work.
Fantastic!!!! This is exceptionally great news. Glory be to God.
Oh, how I love the vestments!!!
I was there, though I wasn’t able to enter the chapel which was overcrowded. But it was possible to see and listen through the windows and the oper door.
Thank you Samson!
It would be nice to see the whole Mass on video!
I watched the clips that PMcGrath provided-very cool!
Loved the singing!
I’m with you, ipadre-I’d like to see the whole Mass on video, too!
