Modern Sacred Music

Are you interested in modern sacred music? I use the term "Modern Sacred Music" to include all kinds of music that has emerged in the church in recent years - including contemporary Christian, jazz, rock, rap, Taize, classical. One of the things I love about the Episcopal Church is that we can "have it all". Our tradition is very broad - we can have a high holy chanted eucharist for one service on Sunday and a modern music eucharist with guitars and drums at the other; we can have a healing service with a harp, a quiet Taize service, a U2-charist, or a jazz mass. And at the heart of each is our Episcopal Eucharist - our open, inclusive, diverse, loving, welcoming Episcopal Eucharist. I love it, and I want it all for Nativity.

What is your experience in the Episcopal church? Please share you video, music or pictures. Thank you.
