Here is a reminder about this seminar in Chicago on April 2, 2011. I’m really really hoping for a big turnout here. I’m coming a long way (from Auburn to Chicago) to do this and I’m really fired up about it. We’ll talk about where we have been and where we are going in Catholic music, sing through the Missal chants, and look beyond this toward an integrated program of sacred music for parishes. This will be very practical with the goal of immediate improvement in parish music.
It would be thrilling to see the place packed. Can you put this on your calendar? There is a meet and greet, and it is a normal feature of human psychology that I can anticipate being very happy about meeting fellow Cafe people face to face. This would be a real kick for all of us to be together.
I don’t think you need to register but here is the registration page. You can just show up though I believe there is a nominal fee for attendance. Onward!
Hi Jeffrey and Chironomo:
For those of us who have to remain at our posts in the trenches, maybe you could consider recording your presentations, either by video or audio for pod cast; post your notes and any references you use. That way we can share in the treasure. Maybe CCWatershed can assist in the tech.
Can't wait, Jeffrey! I'm coming from NOLA for it!…well, this, and a Belvedere Martini at the Coq D'or!
Musings;
I will be posting the Powerpoint portion of my presentation as well as a lot of other materials related to music for the new translation at http://www.jeffreyschantpage.blogspot.com
For those in the Southern part of the US, the Musica Sacra Florida conference is at Ave Maria University on the weekend of April 1 & 2. If you cannot make it up to Chicago that weekend, perhaps AMU would be more convenient!

You'd think I would know!
Chironomo:
Thanks. I'll look for it after the event. 🙂
