    Offertory motet: Ave Maria - Arcadelt

    I miss singing this so much. I wish my Diocese had a choir, not necessarily for liturgical purposes, but simply for Catholics of sufficient musical competence to learn and perform sacred music that for the most part wouldn’t be heard. We have so much great music that doesn’t get heard unless a secular choir performs it, and there’s always something lacking, or someone using it as an opportunity to bash the Catholic Church.

    So, so much this. Not to mention that we are supposed to be singing this stuff in the liturgy, and such a choir can serve as an incubator for new singers.

    Anyway, I'm blessed to be able to sing three Masses for this great feast! Gaudeamus omnes in Domino!
