Ritual Chants premiered on Television

A chant from the cycle Ritual Chants will be featured on Boston's Catholic Television on the evening of September 25th. This live performance will be part of the annual telethon, and more information can be found at the CTV website here.
Ritual Chants is a cycle of 20 ancient chant tunes recast in a modern idiom, created to help keep chant pertinent to today's worship practice. Each is scored for a modular instrumentation which often is as large as 8 part choir, organ, and another instrument, but can also be performed with any subset of this instrumentation. More info on Ritual Chants can be found here.
