...have just read your excellent Jan. 16 article. I have spent many years in the study of the Gregorian chant and spent much time at Solesmes. There are several groups in this country dedicated to the revival of the chant, and one of them is my own choir, which consists of ecclesiastical students for the priesthood from the seminary which is attached to our abbey.

...play is confusing, the Canterbury Players are not to blame. Director David Green skillfully uses the choir and pulpit of Christ Church as a set, and the production at times generates a good deal of excitement.

"We are allies in a great struggle for peace throughout the world," he told...
...concert centered about two magnificent choral works, one from the early 17th century and the other from the present day. The early work, sung by the entire Glee Club, was Gabriceli's In Ecclesiis, originally written for two mixed choruses and full brass choir. Friday's performance was severely cut and arranged for men's voices and piano, but even in this version the brilliance and architectural majesty of the music was apparent. The Glee Club tone was large and at times rather strident...
