- Title
The Heroic Task of Chanting.
- Authors
Tucker, Jeffrey
- Abstract
The author discusses the experiences of both professional and non-professional singers in Gregorian scholas. He relates his personal experience practicing with his choir for a rendition of the Catholic hymn "Te Deum." The author compares the different challenges faced by singers in modern times, who struggle with Gregorian chanting, as opposed to those in modern preconciliar times. He also notes efforts made by modern singers to re-create liturgical art and music through recordings and publications like "The Parish Book of Chant," published by the CMAA.
