This is a Roman Catholic seminary, which is why it's all men.
For some people this isn't high church _enough_ -- where's the incense?
In varying degrees, Catholics (Roman, Anglo, and Orthodox) get a taste of something like this every week.
From the youtube description:
Traditional Latin Mass filmed on the Feast of the Sacred Heart in the small chapel of the International Seminary of Saint Cure d'Ars, Flavigny, France, in 1999.
The film presents the ceremonies of the Missa Solemnis or Solemn High Mass with Gregorian chant and polyphonic motets. Some local customs take place during the Mass. For example, birettas are not worn and the Domini Non Sum Dignus is recited aloud by all present. More astute listeners might also notice the French pronunciation, which is perhaps not the ideal.
