Demonstration videos on interpreting chant?

    I often recommend two sets of demonstration videos on chant, one by Fr. Funk from the Chicago Benedictines, the other by Giovanni Vianini in Milan, though, obviously, it helps if you know Italian with Dott. Vianini.

    Are there any others, or a video course on chant, that I could recommend to people? Or study myself.

    I spent a week at St. Meinrad with Fr. Kelly and a week at NPM with Frs. Ruff and Funk, and, while there is nothing like concentrating for a week, Fr. Funk's videos really do constitute a fairly complete course in Chant interpretation in 9-minute chunks.

    But anything like that, I would love to know about.

    The best videos demonstrating propers:

    They're just glorious. They take into consideration the older signs and yet are so fresh and brilliantly sung.

    In example:
