Thanks for letting me be a part of these lectures. I majored in Trumpet, Music Ed., & played Principal Trumpet in Chicago, Denton TX, Milwaukee, Augusta, & Atlanta, GA. 46 years! Michael McClary
Thank you for sharing your knowledge and passion for music with us! I've been getting into listening to medieval and renaissance music recently and your videos are helping me understand and appreciate it even more. I love the little touches of humor you add. Thanks again!
I love that you've used the Traditional Latin Mass as your point of reference - but the Mass is not a reenactment of the Last Supper, but a memory and Sacramental repetition of the Sacrifice of Calvary 😁
Merci beaucoup. As someone who works in the French, your accent was, as we say, parfait. Funny this was about church music. I remember attending the mass in Latin, and we had to sing these songs. And I realize that my lifetime of saying that I was born with two left ears. I had several brothers, and they always got in trouble when I sang since they laughed so much. it helped with my comedy chops, but only last year I started studying the piano to make up for lost time. Au revoir.
Hi man first of all thank you for this beautiful lesson and video. I am also looking for a book which can help me to understand the writing for Mass and structure, can you recommend me. Thank you
It's always so funny to hear comments from ages ago on the new musics of their time. Humanity's been basically saying the same thing about new music no matter when that occurred or what the culture of the time was.
