    I am presenting a workshop on December 8 for beginners in Gregorian Chant as part of the "Scholars' Forum" at the Franciscan Center in Tampa (http://www.franciscancentertampa.org/index.html), and would be grateful for help from my friends at the CMAA in making this opportunity known. Here is the announcement from the Center:

    SCHOLARS' FORUM: "Gregorian Chant for Everyone"
    Larry Kent, Ph.D.
    December 8 - Tuesday, 7:00-9:00 p.m.

    A workshop with the Music Director of Florida Pro Musica on singing this beautiful music from the Middle Ages. The ability to read music is not necessary, nor is a trained or beautiful voice. Participants will get a brief historical introduction to the role of Gregorian chant in the early Christian Church, but the emphasis will be on singing. Register by: December 4 Cost: $20

    The Franciscan Center is at 3010 Perry Avenue, Tampa, Florida 33603

    I'll put it up on my blog Sacred Miscellany in case there are any Tampa area readers. I did something similar in Jacksonville about 18 months ago. The more we do this, the more people will know that chant isn't just a museum artifact.
