I watched Mockingbird's video and thought, did those guys convert to the EC from the Hare Krishnas? It's not that big of a leap these days.

They're all actually singing Abraham D. Maraire's Zimbabwe Alleluia, (which we only use during Eastertide) but to include copyrighted music in a film requires an expensive clearance known as a synchronization license, so I put in a track of public-domain music. My camera doesn't record sound anyhow.

Did you film this as part of an expose' to be sent to the bishop, or is such behavior affirmed in your diocese?

That helps. It just loooked to me as though he was doing a dance and hitting the pew in front of him as part of it. I see the drum now I know it's there. Still, the others managed to play their instruments without the exaggerated gestures.

That's okay, St. Bertelin! I misspelled your name often enough!
So glad you had a chance to watch the joyful reunion of the Russian Orthodox Church with me, across all these miles. I was hoping they'd also show the Divine Liturgy, which, as they said, would "seal" the reunion in a sacramental way. Alas, there is "other news" on now, but we were blessed to see what we got to see, and I think we probably saw more than most people over there were able to see.
It was a beautiful moment in history.
Best wishes,
Mary

You're quite right. Thank you so much for giving me the opportunity. Don't despair yet, though, they did say that they were leaving the cathedral "for now", so I'm staying tuned. That said, I can understand if you need to sleep. It must be early morning where you are now.
My own parish priest was upset about not being able to view it but he's working away from a computer today. I was able to spot Archbishops Mark, Hilarion, and Kyrill from ROCOR, in addition, of course, to Metropolitan Laurus and Patriarch AlexeyII.

They are. Wonderful to hear, and to see the pictures, and sounds, of what happened (which I missed due to work meetings). Thanks be to God. Looking forward to more highlights from the day being shown.

I found streaming video of the beautiful service here on Christ the Saviour Cathedral's very slow website Reunion Service . One goes to the website, needn't wait for the whole page to load, just click on the blue lines at the bottom of the right-hand column and it will give you a 4 hr., 51 min. video that plays with Windows Media Player "Classic".
Try it if you haven't any other source. The sound (on my machine anyhow) is quite soft, but you can hear it.
Did you find a video archive of the service anywhere else, Ian or anybody?
Best wishes,
Mary

There's an "ecclesiantic" in that video that everyone will really enjoy, I think:
Russian Orthodox prelates have a corps of acolytes who are ready to help out in any emergency. "Russia Today" did not show the scene, which happens about an hour into the streaming video, where Patriarch Alexei needed to replace his mitre on his head, but from so much taking off and putting on of the mitre, his fine white hair had become dishevelled, so the acolyte handed him a fine ivory comb, with which the Patriarch smoothed back his white hair before replacing the mitre! Is that or what?!
Best,

I swear you must have a patriarch-blessed computer that plays videos that are denied to mine.
Which version of Windows Media Player exactly is it that you're using? If I know, I can download it and try again. Only I've tried it on version 10 and on Real Player and it won't talk to me, and I've just discovered that I don't have the right version of Windows XP (service pack 2? whatever that means) to be able to upgrade to version 11.

No, it plays with "Windows Media Player Classic", which I think is downloadable though I don't know from where. It was on my machine when I bought the machine last year.
Good luck! I will google and see if I can find where Windows Media Player Classic can be downloaded.

Try the download here and see if it works. It's just a stripped-down version of Windows Media Player, 9 MB, so in its stuffed file, it shouldn't take too long to download.

Ahhh, sorry. I didn't realise that was the actual name of the version. I just thought that's what you were calling it because it was an older version.
But isn't this brilliant, though? I go away, put my pasta on, and I come back to find an answer. I love this site.

I live to serve! Hope it works for you! The connection keeps timing out on me, but I persevere.
Best wishes to all, and apologies for geeky posts to get the video to play for you all! It's worth the trouble for the tat alone, but it's such a historic moment that I think everyone should have a chance to see it.

I was just about to blog that: 'Elvis does a folk Mass' from the film Change of Habit.
The music and the dancing girls are so wrong even though the words are very earnest and well-meant.
Interestingly the church and ceremonial are still nice and 'high' and reverent... it was depicting the use of the 1965 Missal, which was as far as many/most people thought the changes would go (which would have been fine). I even like the offertory procession.
And you've even got Mary Tyler Moore kitted out like a proper nun!

Thanks very much indeed, RCD! At least, the excerpts from "Russia Today" on You Tube will give the flavour of it.... I tried to look at the 4hr. 51 min. video on the Cathedral of Christ the Saviour website last evening and this morning, and it won't play any more.... I guess they couldn't afford the bandwidth for more than a week.
I was just about to show people at my church on Sunday how to get the video, and was telling the choir about it last night at choir practice....but now the big video from the cathedral website with the whole service is no longer available.

Thanks for that lovely You Tube video, aumbry! I just watched it and had an attack of acute nostalgia... oh, to be in England! The blurb credited the making of the programme to John Betjeman himself, 1974. I know John Betjeman died in '84. Miss him, he was one of my favourite poets....

If you enjoyed that then I recommend getting the DVD of Metroland in which Betjeman finds similar sorts of eccentricities at each stop of the tube.
