Chicago, Chicago...

The Gonzaga University Gregorian Schola (well, most of it) is headed to Chicago on the 19th, and will be there through the 21st. We will be singing for two Masses, one with the "hard core" stuff we do every Sunday (chants from the Graduale Romanum), and one with chants from the Graduale Simplex and By Flowing Waters. This will go along with a conference presented by our illustrious conductor, Dr. Edward Schaefer, called "The Place of Chant in the Liturgy Today" being held at the University of Saint Mary of the Lake/Mundelein Seminary Conference Center. We're bringing our own priest, Fr. Gary Uhlenkott, SJ, of the Music Dept. here, who frequently sings Mass for us. Masses will be at 4:45pm on Monday and 10am on Tuesday. I don't know if anyone who reads this blog will be attending the conference, but if you are, do come up and say hello!
