L.RST 367 - Roman Catholic Liturgical Music in Theology & Practice

Credits: 3

Roman Catholic liturgy is, itself, an art form - one in which God, the artist, artistically forms people. This course explores the artistic nature of Roman Catholic liturgy by focusing on one of its most recognizable artistic elements, liturgical music. Liturgical music impacts the experience of worship, thereby directing the theological vision that is developed by the liturgy itself. Students will explore the ways in which liturgy and liturgical music enrich, shape, and express the Christian spirit.
