Funny, I was also there in 1999, not for the course but doing some research in the Solesmes library and hanging out with Saulnier. He´s at the Pontifical Institute now, and I hear he´s doing fantastic things.

The course I took in chant at Solesmes in 1999 was through Robert Fowells at Cal. State, LA, who had forged a friendship with Dom Saulnier. The man is a tireless advocate for the beauty and primacy of chant.
