Here is Fr. Stanich's letter about the next jam!!!
Dear Singers,
Father Steven Soos has graciously accepted to host the next "Jam Session" in the beautiful city of St.Louis during the weekend of August 22-25th. Fatherbeing a Hungarian will surely try to outdo a Croatianbut that will be hard to do!
I will send out my proposal to all of you in the nearfuture to let you know what I would like to do nexttime.
Wishing you a holy Lent, I am
Sincerely yours in Christ,
Fr. Stephen Stanich

As Promised - A Jam-Session Ditty
Do re mi fa sol la ti,
Merry will our sessions be,
Arias, jazz, concertos too,
Keep us all from feeling blue,
(Though a blues chord here and there
Is a thing we love to share!)
Dorian, major, Lydian, minor,
Modes and keys get fine and finer,
Rounds, polyphony and chant,
Sight-sing, sight-play, and if you can't,
Ask the key and shut your eyes
And improv, improv, improvise!
When at last it's time to go,
End the jam with Figaro!
Tomorrow night - it's morning?! - then,
Tonight, we'll do it all again!

Hello!
Welcome to the Jam Session blog! Here's to our webmistress, Lucia, for making it! I'll probably post some jam poetry as well, when I write it.
Hello everyone!
I thought it would be fun to put up a blog for everyone's pictures, videos, and hopefully sound clips from the jam. I didn't take a camera myself, so I will just say that this weekend was the most fun I've had in a long time and I already miss Dickinson! A huge thank you to Fr. Stanich for organizing it and inviting us all.
