guitar music during Lent
The local Roman Catholic pastor told all the musicians that use of the guitar during the celebration of Mass in Lent was forbidden. Could you please tell me where that instruction can be found?

Dear Vladimir, Your pastor is making this up. Guitars are not permitted at any time of the year. You can do a quick search in this forum, I've been asked a few times why they are forbidden, if you're interested. Your pastor may be thinking of the rule that no music may be played during Lent unless it is played to accompany the singing... from "Paschales Solemnitatis" Mr. Slavek |
