A Treasure of Inestimable Value

The musical tradition of the universal Church is a treasure of inestimable value, greater even than that of any other art.

Vatican II, Constitution on the Sacred Liturgy, n. 112

The treasure of the Church’s sacred music is open to all, and is discovered and appreciated more and more. CMAA members work to share this wealth of knowledge and art and apply it in our parishes.

Here, through the internet, CMAA offers classic and contemporary books and articles on sacred music, free to download, read, and share.  Many of them are also available in print form at the CMAA Shop.
