Giving Myself a Break

Since I will not be able to stay for tomorrow's Mass at the Colloquium and because i feel I have finally triumphed over the dragon of ictus placement, I am taking off from chant rehearsals this morning.

Packing, but also resting up for this afternoon's New Music Reading session, which was one of the absolute highlights for last year for me.

The canard that those of us with a stake in promoting liturgical orthopraxis are only interested in old stuff by dead white European guys in alanguages nobody speaks is never more patently false than at events of this type -- the support given to and admiration shown of contemporary composers is a hallmark of the CMAA.

(And this year, the music will be bound.) (!) ( :o))
