Sacred, Beautiful, and Universal

Back in July, I mentioned that I had attended the CMAA Sacred Music Colloquium in Chicago, at which Corpus Christi Watershed had filmed a documentary.

CCW released the completed documentary, entitled Sacred, Beautiful, and Universal (from the three requirements for sacred music given by St Pius X in Tra le sollecitudini), online yesterday (embedded video courtesy of Vimeo):



The documentary is also going to be available on DVD, along with a bonus interview with Dr William Mahrt, president of the CMAA (and, from personal experience, a wonderful lecturer). More info on the DVD, as well as a CD of the music, can be found at the Music for the Liturgy website.
