Rome Recordings

While we await Francesco's return with videos and photos from Rome, I've been scouring the internet for any news or recordings of the International Church Music Festival and found a posting from Harry Butler who was hired to produce a souvenir DVD of the event.  Follow this link:  St. Paul's (Rome) for a first-hand account of his recording experience - although technical in some paragraphs, he was kind enough to attach a couple of files snipped from the concert track.  

Annapolis Madrigal Singers

The Annapolis Area Christian School Madrigal Singers were also in Rome for the International Church Music Festival. Photos of their stay in Rome are available on their blog aacsmadrigals.blogspot.com
