THAT’s what the temporary outdoor worship venue looked like??? Holy Maloney! Now THAT’s the way to do it!!! Magnifico!!!
Not only is the worship space breathtaking in its magnificence, not only is there a proper altar, properly appointed, but they even went so far as to erect the pontifical throne and dais??? No avant-garde presidential chair crafted by a local artisan especially for the visit? No white or tan audience chair plopped in front of the altar? But the pontifical throne dais??? At an “away” Mass???
San Marco! Now, that’s impressive.
Interestingly, those Venetian bricks were historically made in a neighborhood called the Ghetto, which came to be the Jewish neighborhood in the city, giving rise to the term as we use it today.
I noticed that His Holiness chanted the Words of Institution. As an Eastern Christian, I was pleased.
How do others feel about this?
BTW–I’ve seen that the new English Edition of the OF has chanted versions of all 4 Anaphorai, as far as I can tell, adapted from the Preface chants.

“I noticed that His Holiness chanted the Words of Institution. As an Eastern Christian, I was pleased.

I have not seen any video of the Holy Father’s Mass at Venice but I have heard the institutional narrative sung before and, personally, I find the practice rather amazing. I’m intrigued to learn that the Pope does this.
That is so cool! The mosaics look like those at San Marco!
As Centristian said, ‘Magnifico!’
Mattone su mattone, Santo Padre! Woo Hoo!
Thirty years ago at the London Oratory the whole of the Eucharistic Prayer was usually sung (in Latin, of course). Now it is usually recited sotto voce (presumably to sound more ‘Tridentine’).
