Chant for the Church and the World
The CMAA is pleased to announce a major milestone in the Communio Project: the communion chants for Sundays and holy days are now completed and ready for instant download and printing. Thank you for all your notes of thanks for these editions. Some have noted the paradox of using 21th century means to disseminate and promote timeless music that dates from the first millennium of Christianity.
We can't but think of the exuberance of Dom Andre Mocquereau at the production of the chant editions in the early years of the 20th century.
He was a man of remarkable intellectual power and artistic inspiration. But he was also practical: he worked to produce chant editions for the whole Church to sing. He was alert to every technical innovation in hopes of driving down costs and making the chant ever more accessible.
In that same spirit, the CMAA is pleased to offer this and many other resources to parishes around the world. See the Communio Project.
There is much more to come. Please consider supporting this work with your tax-deductible contribution to the CMAA.
