Gregorian Chant and Palestrina

O.k, top this. I am an Irish-Algonquin Catholic and a lifelong Yankeee fan who drives around in his van, with the Oakland Raiders License plate, listening to the "Kyrie" of Missae Papae Marcellus (Sp? my C.D. is in the van) by Palestrina at ear-piercing levels.

Your wife might agree with you on music, my wife merely thinks me insane

OK. I am not enough of a football fan to argue about the Raiders whose image is definitely to cherish. Not just that Kyrie but the entire Mass of Pope Marcellus were sung live (without ear-splitting) with some regularity by the Schola Cantorum of Sacred Heart Church in New Haven, my former parish, and I believe also here in Rockford at St. Mary's Shrine. My wife would know. Remember that she only agrees with my tastes in Church music.
