The spring issue which arrived a few weeks ago in the mailboxes of subscribers will soon be followed by the summer issue of Sacred Music.
Among other things, the spring issue contained a pair of articles on Messiaen, a pair of notable documents on the 50th anniversary of Musicam Sacram, and an article by Peter Kwasniewski on contemporary music.
The forthcoming summer issue will contain a number of addresses given at the March 2017 conference hosted by St. Joseph's Seminary (Dunwoodie), "Gregorian Chant in Pastoral Ministry and Religious Education."
Both issues, as usual, contain particularly cogent and insightful editorials by the journal's editor, Dr. William Mahrt.
