Does your parish music program need some new initiatives or a complete overhaul? Join Dr. Donelson-Nowicka as she takes participants through the outline of a strategic planning process. Discover ways of assessing your program and goals, brainstorm ideas, set short- and long-term goals for the future, and discover how to build up the people God has placed in your parish to be motivated and able to render this important and beautiful service. Ideal for parish music directors and pastors.
Faculty: Dr. Jennifer Donelson-Nowicka

Are you an organist who’s new to chant or could use a refresher on how to approach chant at the keyboard? Join Professor Christopher Berry and Dr. Jennifer Donelson-Nowicka as they discuss the basics of understanding chant modality at the keyboard, as well as the rhythmic and harmonic principles behind the main schools of chant accompaniment. Registration and texture will also be addressed.
