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.

The registration location changed two weeks previous from Mertz to the Regis dorm, and not all of us knew about the change. Malcom, a student who thinks he'll be majoring in Japanese, was just getting off the desk at Mertz, so he helped me with my luggage and guided me across campus to the Regis dorm and all the way to my rom.
