A co-worker (who is Jewish) was singing what sounded like a simple, Protestant hymn. I asked him what it was & he said it was music sung in Temple. The words were in English so it just sounded to me like a typical church hymn from the U.S. or Britain. Protestant, Catholic, Jewish liturgical music has all sort of meshed into a beige sameness, one indistinguishable from the other. I rather enjoy hearing some of the traditional, Jewish music & enjoyed singing Gregorian chants as a kid.
I agree with you but at times wat is sung @ church isnt necesserally modern and they are actually performing @ Perpperdine University and this is near Pasadena idk where you live but check it out im gonna go see them
It would be amazing if Chanticleer would sing Monteverdi's "Selva Morale e Spirituale" or the "Vespro della Beata Vergine". Some of the masterpieces about the sacred music.
Thanks to my Sisters in Texas who shared the Mission Trail with me when I visited them one Thanksgiving! It is south of San Antonio, where it begins!

Why isn't this song on the Mission Road CD?

This is beautiful music. Why in the world has the Church replaced this tradition with ugly modernity?

As a Catholic who is majoring in Sacred Music, I can assure that there is at least hope. It may be slow in coming. BUT it IS coming. :)
