S2:11 EP20: Sacred Music and the Dictatorship of Noise

Happy All Souls Day - the last day of Allhallowtide, the triduum of All Hallow's Eve, All Saint's Day, and All Soul's Day. Today on the podcast Katie plays us some stunning sacred music (courtesy of the Brompton Oratory and The Baltimore Basilica) and discusses the importance of sacred music in the liturgy (is it just a matter of taste? what's the difference between contemporary music and chant? etc.)
