    Hi, Carl--

    Sorry one of your posts was held up as suspected spam. If you post a couple of notes in quick succession, the system treats the later one(s) as suspect.

    Thanks for posting these! I want to point some people (ahem, pastor and choir) to the recordings.

    Hi, Carl!

    Janet tells me that Simon gave the OK for sharing the recordings.

    By the way, this year there was no session for new compositions.

    Thanks, I was wondering about that, RC. I didn't have time to scour through the program to see if I'd missed something though.

    Alright! Dr. Mahrts lecture was first rate: an hour that felt like 15 minutes! Excellent presentation and I would like to recommend it to everyone!

    Now that the Colloquium has come and gone, I feel like the whole thing only lasted 15 minutes!

    I really liked Dr. McNamara's lecture on Sacred Architecture.
    Does anyone have a video of it? I would like to see the slides he presented.

    Thank you for posting these!!!

    He gave a practically identical lecture for the Institute of Catholic Culture which you can listen to -- and view the corresponding PowerPoint -- here. And then there's another related lecture by McNamara here. Enjoy!

    Actually, for those who like listening to academic lectures, the Institute for Catholic Culture has a lot of very interesting things; the main page is here.

    Recording of Requiem Mass, Saturday 5 July. What was the last song which was sung?

    Was it the Libera me, Domine? It got forgotten during the music planning, so it wouldn't have been on any of the lists...

    During the middle of Mass, one of the faculty noticed that it hadn't been planned, so I looked it up in the Liber PDF on my phone and tablet, and several of us sang it off our electronic devices from the side of the church. Nothing like singing ancient chants off of electronics... Puts "Beauty ever ancient, ever new" in a whole new context!

    So, here we have an example of unrehearsed chant captured by a recording device. Can anyone tell the difference?

    Chonak,

    Pluuuuuease. We were all using android devices (and maybe one windows phone, didn't see exactly). Keep that Apple propaganda out of here.

    I've got a whole ton of recordings, and am working on it. I'm concentrating on the Masses first, and had more requests for Sunday and Saturday so I did those sooner. Patience, my friend.

    The organist for Thursday's Mass was Horst Buchholz, and the celebrant Fr. Francisco Nahoe, O.F.M. Conv.

    Did you happen to get evensong?I didn't even see a blank entry for it, though I'd love to hear those recordings....I was pretty sure I saw Justin's recorder there.

    Presently. I have 70 recordings, and my poor little PC is thrashing its brains out.

    Yes, Ben is right about the celebrants: Fr Nahoe for the EF Wednesday and Fr Earthman for the OF Thursday. Sorry, @Carl, for the flub.

    The sound level on Fr Smith's homily on July 4th has been raised a bit to make it easier to understand.

    For those of you interested in downloading all the tracks of a Mass, Vespers, Evensong, or the Organ Recital, I've created zip files of the MP3s so you can grab them all at once. I'm half done uploading the files; it should be done in a couple of hours.

    Dr. Weber's playing on Wednesday, especially at Vespers, was one of the highlights of the week for me. Very well done stylistic improv on the organ without being slavish.

    Yes, Dr. Weber is a very fine organist and it was a pleasure to meet him, hear him play, and sing in his schola!

    I've added some recordings of breakout sessions - but I'm searching for a recording of Andrew Motyka's lecture. Anybody have that?

    For those of you looking for the high quality (lossless) recordings, I've now updated the bulk download page to include the WMA files. Grab those, and as always, let me know if you see any mistakes.
