Does anyone know if there exist CDs to teach choirs/assemblies/priests/deacons to chant the Mass in English? The Simple English Propers book has the music, but if one doesn't have a recording to help teach, it is very difficult for a lone musically uneducated pastor in an out-of-the-way parish to take the time to attempt to teach his small choir and people what with all the other demands made on him, plus the building of a new church, etc. This pastor is doing all he can to "Sing the Mass" even going to the Colloquium XXII last year, taking his two deacons, getting them to chant the Gospels on special feast days, himself chanting "The Lord be with you," and more. Any help you can give him?
