Such a profound difference! Music that is suitable for Mass should, as you mention, be solemn and dignified, as befits the sacred mysteries, and not something merely conventional or secular, with a catchy tune.

Would that more musical directors had the insight (and good taste), to make this distinction, as you have. 👍 👍 👍
