From June 16 through June 22, 2008, 250 lovers of Gregorian chant and Sacred Polypohony met at the Church Music Association of America Colloquium at Loyola University's beautiful Lakeshore campus.
Several levels of Gregorian chant scholas and four different polyphony groups met daily to prepare to sing at the liturgies. Besides Masses, we sang at Morning Prayer, Vespers, Compline and a Holy Hour. Sing, sing, sing to the Lord seven days in a row with hundreds of kindred souls. I tell you, that's my idea of a good time.

Jeffrey announced that Arlene Oost-Zinner, who organizes CMAA events, was prevented from being there because her teen-age son, Maxl was diagnosed with metastacized cancer the Friday before and had begun chemotherapy that day.
