May Women Sing in Our Church Choirs?
Since the publication of Father Bonvin's article on the question whether women may sing in our church choirs (Caecilia, Oct. 1908, and CATHOLIC FORTNIGHTLY REVIEW, xv, 20 sq.), the following correspondence has been given out by the Bishop of Pittsburg:
Bishop Canevin to Cardinal Merry del Val:
It would please me very much if you would have the kindness to advise me if it is true that women may sing in the choirs or churches, not only when they sing together with the other male members of the congregation in the body of the church, but also when they are separated, and form, either alone, or with men and boys, a special choir on an elevated platform or choir loft in the rear of the churches, as is the custom in the United States. Because of the diversity of opinion, and the many newspaper reports, there is great obscurity and much controversy concerning this matter; and it would be a great advantage not only to the diocese, but to the other dioceses of the United States, if we could have some final word from the Holy Father for the purpose of definitely putting an end to the question. In the hope that you will have the goodness to communicate to me the decision of the Holy Father as soon as possible, I beg to remain, with the expression of my very high consideration, etc.
Cardinal Merry del Val to Bishop Canevin:
Segreteria di Stato di Sua Santita. No. 33,810. Dal Vaticano, 29 November, 1908. My Lord Bishop: In reply to your letter of the 14th of November, I hasten to inform you that the Holy Father has not given permission for women to form part of the church choirs in the United States, and that the statement that such permission has been granted by His Holiness is devoid of foundation. His Holiness' wish is that the decrees of the Sacred Congregation of Rites in regard to church choirs should be faithfully observed in the United States as elsewhere. R. CARD. MERRY DEL VAL.
