This course is a chance for tenors (male and female) and basses to get into Old School sacred music this January. Students will be introduced to the basics of Gregorian chant, the official liturgical music of the Catholic Church and the foundation of all Western music. Along the way we’ll get comfortable with square notes, pick up just enough ecclesiastical Latin pronunciation to screw up everything you might have learned in high school, and make some of the most beautiful and solemn music known to mankind, like this:

If you can hold a note and sing “Do-re-mi” from The Sound of Music, you have all the raw talent necessary.
Six meetings (twice a week, approx. 60 minutes each) on campus between January 7 and January 24. All materials will be provided by the instructor.
Contact Professor Darel Paul (dpaul@williams.edu) for more information.
