Random Sacred Music Quote

"In the Latin Church the pipe organ is to be held in high esteem, for it is the traditional musical instrument which adds a wonderful splendor to the Church's ceremonies and powerfully lifts up man's mind to God and to higher things." Vatican Council II, Sacrosanctum Concilium ¶120, Dec 4, 1963
