But there was something about hearing the Mass chanted with just a few small notes \u2014 by an older priest with a tired voice \u2014 that transformed me completely. I was about 22 years old and I had never heard anything so beautiful. The total absence of ego and the total absorption in a purpose beyond time enthralled me. I think that these notes unlocked my mind to understand and opened my heart to a kind of love I had never known. Looking back at it, those small notes had a more powerful effect than the shelves of books and the endless hours of studying the faith. &#8230; <\/p>\n<p>&#8230; my fascination with it began as purely artistic, but when I realized that there was a reason for its structure and sound, my appreciation grew. I realized that it is all a form of prayer, and the musical structure amounts to an attempt by mortals to touch a realm of immortality. It was all an attempt to somehow capture and characterize what the ancients called the \u201cmusic of the spheres,\u201d which is something like a heavenly sound that might be worthy to be presented by angels at the throne of God. The composers and the tradition heard something true and beautiful and the liturgy absorbed it as its own.<\/p>\n<p>It goes without saying that secular music doesn\u2019t attempt this at all. It is designed to flatter the performers, indulge the composers, entertain the audience, or whatever.  &#8230;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I intervjuet st\u00e5r det ogs\u00e5 mye interessant om arbeidet som p\u00e5g\u00e5r for \u00e5 hjelpe prester og menigheter til \u00e5 synge messen p\u00e5 engelsk p\u00e5 en bedre m\u00e5te.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I et intervju med Jeffrey Tucker forteller han om sin omvendelse til Den katolsk Kirke: &#8230; I had been a lifetime musician, playing in symphonies and jazz combos and everything in between.
