A SLICE OF HEAVEN

                   My Week at The Liturgical Music Institute: Lex Orandi, Lex Credendi, Lex Vivendi

On Sunday afternoon June 29 I left my home to spend five days at the Seminary of the Immaculate Conception in Huntington, New York, a beautiful and charming town dotted with winding roads, majestic homes, towering trees, and the peaceful waters of Long Island. Turning into the driveway, I was immediately overtaken by the leafy and welcoming trees which served as an honor guard on both sides of the driveways, reminiscent of an earlier period of history and a slower pace of life. At the top of the driveway sat the Seminary, the “Icon of the Heart of the Church on Long Island.” Built in 1930, this imposing structure, situated on 215 acres close to the Long Island Sound, has served as a special place of learning and formation for both priests, religious, and lay ministers, an oasis of peace and tranquility for all who enter.

"Roger Nyquist plays the organ better than most people. In order: rhythmic sense, accuracy of finger, registration, and musical grasp are all outstanding." (Vernon Gotwals, in The American Organist) Dr. Nyquist studied with Arthur Poister, Catharine Crozier, and André Marchal. His concert career is active throughout the United States and Europe. He has recorded extensively – with more than 24 albums (over 180 compositions) to his credit. "Nyquist is a stimulating artist full of alertness, flexibility, and imagination."
