Re: Folk Liturgy/New American Nusach

<< The last organist employed by the temple was also the director of music for
 St. Mary's (Roman Catholic) Cathedral. Most frequently he would play
Gregorian
 Chants. This didn't seem to bother anybody else, but it drove me crazy!
 Because I am a Jew by Choice and a graduate of a Catholic university, I knew
 all the words . . . in Latin.
 
 I STILL like the Gregorian chants but I am happier not to hear them in shul.

Check out the old UAHC's Union Hymnal if you miss the church-like atmosphere.
