Join us for a time of retreat, learning Gregorian chant as we focus on Advent, Christmas, and the beloved chants of Mary.

Cantors from the Community of Jesus at villa Via Sacra in Barga, Italy host a weekend of Gregorian chant studying and chanting Antiphons and Hymns for the Advent and Christmas season.  After workshops and masterclasses, participants have the opportunity to sing at St. Elizabeth’s convent in Barga, Italy.
