The anti-CTU?

At a (very convivial!) Companions gathering last night, we finished with (spoken) Evening Prayer.
I spoke to Fr. C afterwards (could almost not sleep, incidentally for the images visual, olfactory and gustatory he planted in my head, talking about his family reunion and the Infarction Machine cuisine of his Grandma's -- shpecks? -- no clue as to the spelling -- but oh, would I love to try it!)

I mentioned the liturgies and retreat and the psalter, and he jokingly (I think,) tsk-tsked... the Liturgical Institute was actually begun as the anti-CTU?
I don't know how true that is, but if so, it speaks ill.... of CTU.

We also talked about the importance of singing, and he decried the lack of music training when he arrived at (CTU despite the musical degrees of two of its leading lights Frs Fragomeni and Foley.
Of the former I know nothing, and while I certainly admire the erudition of the latter, his liturgical sensibilities leave me cold, and his attitude toward the Real Presence in the Blessed Sacrament appalled me.
Any way, I am interested in learning more more about CTU.)

CPPS which has a strong presence there, from what I can gather, has been a great blessing in my life.
