Fr. Phillips’ lecture on the success of St. John Cantius

Fr. Frank Phillips CR, pastor of St. John Cantius Parish and founder of the Canons Regular of St. John Cantius delivered this lecture on June 19, 2008 at the Church Music Association of America’s Colloquium XVIII. He tells of his own personal experiences immediately following the Second Vatican Council (including an episode involving incinerators and volumes of Gregorian Chant), his years under Monsignors Martin B. Hellriegel and Richard J. Schuler, and the initial difficulties of establishing a solid music program at Cantius.
