Upcoming Chant Education Events

This is not intended to be an exhaustive list. If you know of any others, mention away in the comments.

  • As she does every year, Kathy will be attending the CMAA's annual colloquium, this time in Philadelphia the week of July 1-6 (how appropriate! Independence National Historical Park is worth the visit, as is the Ben Franklin Institute. But watch where you park!).
  • Kathy asked me to make mention of two chant courses at the western end of the Keystone State occurring just before the colloquium. Pittsburgh's Duquesne University, a previous colloquium site, will offer both Chant Intensive and Laus in Ecclesia during the week of June 24-28. Read more about them here after scrolling past the colloquium info.
  • That same week, and closer to home, Corpus Christi Watershed and the FSSP are hosting their annual symposium (what's the difference between a colloquium and a symposium? The symposium is intended for choir directors or those who want to become directors, but others are welcome.) in Los Angeles. Unfortunately, registration appears to have ended as of March 31. Our new friends from St. Bridget's in Las Vegas say they intend to be there, but it's a much shorter drive for them than us.
(Related: CCW is holding a fundraiser to keep its site operating past Good Friday (April 19). It has been quite a useful site for me over the years, especially with its sound files and PDFs of chants.)
