His late Eminence was dispensed from episcopal ordination at his request due to his age. IIRC, as a Jesuit, he needed his superior's dispensation even to accept the red hat, as Jesuits are not supposed to receive ecclesiastical honours.

I once met Cardinal Dulles, over whom I made a fool of myself, at a mass where he processed in a mitre. He was not made a bishop. A number of the cardinal-theologians appointed by JPII did not receive episcopal ordination, including, I think the late Cardinal Joos.

According to the old Catholic Encyclopedia, cardinals had the privilege of wearing mitres.
Perhaps it is simply our modern mentality of cardinal=bishop that causes us to assume that they are granted this right because they are bishops.

With profound apologies for posting yet another clip from the WNC...please, won't another church start regular webcasting?
If you have never seen the patriotic Independence Day Organ Recital at the Washington National Cathedral, it is definitely worth a look.
It all leads up to the regular finale, the four-handed Stars and Stripes on the organ (starting at 1:14:00 or so). If you don't watch the whole thing, at least watch that.
Here is the link.

Here is a small parish choir singing the tropar of Christmas. I have only ever before heard it sung to tone 4 but this seems to be a specially composed setting, and it's beautiful.
Here are the words:
Thy Nativity, O Christ our God, hath shone forth the Light of knowledge upon the world. For thereby those who worshipped the stars have been taught by a star to worship Thee, the Sun of Righteousness, and to know Thee, the Dayspring from on high. O Lord, glory be to Thee!
There's another lovely setting here, which seems to be one of those lovely Russian harmonisations of Greek melodies that crop up from time to time.

I was surprised this video clip on NLM (scroll down to the You Tube screen) hadn't been posted yet. I think it's great fun/theater.

Dear all,
This has been a lovely thread, but it has now been around for several years and is getting a little... unwieldy!
As we've just passed the thousand reply-mark, I think it might be time for this one to go its well-deserved rest in Limbo whilst a brand sparkly one is started.
Thank you all and goodnight ![[Smile]](smile.gif) ,
