The church of the Assumption in Nashville, Tennessee is hosting a chant workshop the weekend of November 14-16, beginning at 6pm on Friday evening, continuing on Saturday morning and lasting into the afternoon, and concluding on Sunday with the chanted Mass, and Vespers and Benediction. It will include instruction from Br. Mark Bachmann, O.S.B., choirmaster of Clear Creek Abbey in Oklahoma. The weekend will offer something for both the musical novice or those new to singing chant, as well as more advanced singers, and will include both celebrations of the Holy Mass and of the Divine Office. This event was previously announced for the last weekend of September, but has been moved to this new date due to factors outside the church’s control.
The parish would like to make this a regular feature of its calendar, as it continues to celebrate the restoration of the parish church and its reopening on Laetare Sunday earlier this year. The modest fee of $60 covers lunch and the cost of printing the book. The registration link is HERE. Please see the flyer for more details and contact information.
