THE THIRTEENTH ANNUAL WILLIAM BYRD FESTIVAL begins this weekend with the opening concert on Friday, August 13, and concludes with the final concert on Sunday, August 29. Most events will take place in St. Stephen’s Church. For detailed information, or an updated schedule of all concerts, services, and lectures, please visit the festival website at www.byrdfestival.org.
CANTEMUS DOMINO: A TREASURY OF GREGORIAN CHANT, Volume III: The Music of Holy Week was recently released by the Oregon Catholic Press. The CD will be available for purchase at the many upcoming Byrd Festival events. Many thanks to Kevin Walsh and James Denman of OCP for their kind cooperation with this recording project.
DEAN APPLEGATE is most grateful for all the generosity poured on him at his retirement in March.
Once he sorts out the complexity of finding everyone’s address, he intends to thank everyone personally.
He continues to serve as organist and choirmaster at Holy Rosary Church, director of the William Byrd
Festival, and Chairman of the Board of Cantores in Ecclesia.
THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS is proud to announce the appointment of Blake Applegate as the new Director of Cantores in Ecclesia, beginning March 6, 2010. As the Assistant Director of the Choir for the past nine years, Blake is uniquely qualified, his musicality and liturgical sensitivity a logical extension of the vision begun nearly three decades ago by his father, Dean. The Board wishes to congratulate Blake, and wish him many fruitful and fulfilling years.
