The musician and Pope brother Mons. George Ratzinger spoke its 250 with the Aachener diocese newspaper over the composer. Birthday is today committed.

(kreuz.net/SiSa, Aachen) in `the church newspaper for the diocese Aachen' appeared on 22 January an interview with Mons. George Ratzinger. The older brother of Pope Benedikt XVI. was to 1994 Domkapellmeister of Regensburg.

Mons. Ratzinger spoke its 250 with the Aachener diocese newspaper over Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. Birthday is today committed.

The interview partner wanted to know, how the Ratzingerbrüder the first time with Mozart had come into contact.

With them at home it gave a Harmonium, tells the emeritierte Kapellmeister. In a Übungsheft with note material a two-piece piece was contained, which came allegedly from Mozart.

In the year 1941 that is 150. Death year of Mozart committed. In the radio each Sunday noon piece of Mozart was transferred: „There I in the family at most was in music committed, was allowed I the place of the father at the table to take, which was direct with the radio “, remembers the Pope brother.

In the same year the two Ratzinger brothers drove Domspatzen to that to Salzburg, to a Mozart concert Regensburg - their conductor Mons. Ratzinger later will should:

„You sang some working on there out `the Schauspieldirektor', in costumes. It was completely delicious. I could not sleep the whole night. “

On the question whether it does not disturb it that Mozart was freemason, means Mons. Ratzinger that a judgement is not entitled to it over it. Mozart was humans with many difficulties. These would have resulted from the time at that time and its life circumstances.

But the connection of the composer with the free bricklaying disturbs it to that extent - in such a way Mons. Ratzinger - because Mozart had not been a simple member of this secret movement, but the Meistertitel would have acquired and even its own Loge to base wanted. The free bricklaying is in the Vienna 18. Century obviously mode been.

The composer expected from his membership with the lying brothers also financial advantages: „Whether he did not think about the theological problem, white I. “

On reference that Mozart problems with religious authorities like the Salzburger archbishop Colloredo - which temporary service gentlemen of the composer - would have had, explains the clergyman: „Mozart had his head and Colloredo still more. “

„Whereby I must say, if I had been archbishop, would have I Mozart already also said, for what I pay you actually, if you as much on the way are? Where there is that today still that an employee may be absent for many years. “

On the other hand artistic genius without its many journeys could not itself have developed the Mozarts' perhaps in this way.

On the question, whether the Mozarts' music is divine, the Monsignore answers: The music is a Botin of the luck and the blessedness, which the heavenly reality image. It tells of the unit of the creation with their creator.

Yersinia: which property concerning Mozart:

Athanasius: The supreme command Gotthards announces:

„Against this practice already the liturgical movement in the 20's Jahrern resisted: the fair pray - not in the fair pray. “

And straight this became of Pope Pius XII. in its large encyclical „Mediator Dei et itself hominum “rejected as modernistic mistake, there „everyone in its way “with the Hl. Measuring victim to combine is and finally the gläubige not sakramental sacrifices, but spiritual in combination with the priest!

But like always you know it nevertheless better, above all than Pope Pius XII. How old are you actually?

Sixtus: @Gotthard

I am me stop not reliably whether the liturgical movement was at longer term so successful. When one prays „in the fair “(also an expression of personal freedom against synchronising to be can - exemplary are our orthodox brothers also here) abolished, it was only a step to the Liturgiereform, since one prays for „the fair “then a Showmaster needs, to which one „messages mediate “. That is natural all wrongly understood „participatio actuosa “, sometimes but the abuse lies more near as the correct use. In the Liturgie must area for personal God meeting ALSO always be, which cannot do everything „from above “(and/or „in front “) are specified.

God hard: Benediktus

what has the Benediktus to search with the 1st Tteil of the high prayer? To the fact you see nevertheless that many parts of these orchestra fairs completely detached of the Liturgie sung - and thus presenting became. For me is the concert. The measuring „visitors “concentrated on the singing and the instrumentale play - completely detached of the happening in the fair.
This practice already the liturgical movement in the 20's Jahrern resisted: the fair pray - not in the fair pray.

Sixtus: @Gotthard

Tur me suffering, you speak in mysteries
The Benedictus was sung nevertheless not after the transformation, but following the Sanctus before the transformation, but with orchestra fairs during the first part Canon missae, (with röm. Measuring canon, today - partially changed - the 1st high prayer) before the transformation was rather long. With the transformation prevailed to silence, also the orchestra was silent and set after father our to the Agnus the Dei.
Exactly the same it m.E., Haydn etc. (and/or their klerikalen clients) wanted to have Mozart. We do the favour nevertheless to them

God hard: Head use

not alone Mozart did not only have a head… to composing
