Music at the Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception
Mass in Honor of Pope Benedict XVI
Fifth Sunday of Easter (A)
It's always enjoyable (and educational) to look at just what music is being used in neighboring churches... or churches across the country.
We can learn a great deal about liturgical programming, about seasonal appropriateness, and about what music is available ... some of which may be tucked away in our own libraries!
