    We'll spend some time over the next several rehearsals on our new piece of 12th-century organum: Alleluia: A quam pulchra est (organum, 12th cent.). Stylistically, it is somewhere between chant and polyphony, but the sensibility is different from both in important respects. Reviving this for liturgical use will be quite an adventure.

    Centennial anniversary coming up next month!

    Speaking of November, the Encyclical on Sacred Music, TRA LE COLLECITUDINI, was promulgated by Pope St. Pius X on November 22, the feast of St. Cecilia, 1903. All with genuine concern for good liturgy and the sacred music tradition have every reason in the world to celebrate this feast day!
