Back to EpisodesWhat’s Wrong with Modern Catholic Music? (Erika Ahern) 10/15/26
Description
We welcome back seasoned journalist Erika Ahern to discuss why so much modern Catholic music seems out of place at Mass. How did praise-and-worship styles become so common, and what has been lost as a result? Could a return to Gregorian chant, polyphony, and silence help to restore the sacred character of the liturgy?
