Gregorian chant and sacred music of the
Renaissance are not just for recordings and cathedrals. They can be
used in any parish and sung by everyone. Indeed, says the Catechism
of the Catholic Church, this
music should assume "pride of place"
in the Roman Rite.
Join us for the 2nd
annual all-day workshop of singing and
learning about sacred music, held at St. Michaels Catholic Church in
Auburn, Alabama. (See this report
from last year.) This practicum shows how you can take part in the
revival of sacred music in your parish. It provides a practical
introduction for directors of music, singers in parish choirs, parents
who want their children to learn Latin chant, or anyone who is curious
about the sound and solemnity of truly sacred music.
In particular, the workshop will work through Jubilate
Deo,
the chant book distributed by Pope Paul VI in 1974 with the instruction
that it should serve as the foundation for the musical life of every
parish. It was this book that was to fulfill Vatican II's call for the
faithful to sing the parts of the liturgy that belong to them. Jubilate
is gaining new attention,
given recent Vatican statements favoring more chant, polyphony, and
solemnity in liturgy.
Sponsored by the St. Cecilia Schola Cantorum (as featured on EWTN), and
under the general direction of Scott Turkington, the internationally
renowned specialist in chant and Catholic choral music and leader of
the Stamford
Schola Gregoriana,
the workshop features:
* Singing
sessions on the essential Latin chants every Catholic should know
* Singing
sessions
on 16th
century polyphony by Palestrina and others Singing
sessions on the basics of reading chant notation
* Masses for the
Second Sunday of Lent, during which the Workshop Schola will sing what
we've learned
* Lectures
on the meaning of the Mass and Sacred Music Sheet music provided as
part of registration Luncheon and all-day child
care
The
workshop runs from 9:00am to 6:00pm,
with the option of coming early to hear the St. Cecilia Schola assist
at the 8:00am Mass, or staying overnight to sing at Sunday's 8:00am
Mass. Here is a list
