June 2008

Attention Colloquium composers!  The New Music Reading is scheduled for Saturday, June 21st, at 2:45 in Mundelein Auditorium.  Please plan to bring your scores of Mass settings, motets, and other choral music suitable for the Roman rite.

Composers should plan to bring 100 copies of each score; there will be many more singers than that in attendance, but photocopying is expensive, and we’ll share two to a score.  Because of the number of composers participating, please limit yourself to two scores (two motets, or two Mass movements), or one longer work.  Time is limited, and every composer will be heard, but depending on how many scores we receive, we can’t guarantee that both works will be read.

Please note that there is photocopying available at the Loyola campus, but it’s at the rate of fifteen cents a page.  Composers are strongly urged to copy their scores before arriving for the Colloquium!

Should you have any questions, or need further information, please contact David Hughes at music [at] stmarynorwalk [dot] net.

After reviewing many applications, the Church Music Association of America is pleased to have granted two scholarships to study chant at the Solesmes Monastery, in a study tour sponsored by Voci del Tesoro. You can see the flyer here. Voci del Tesoro also sponsors a 24/7 choral music radio station. Congratulations to the recipients!
