Sacramentality of Music

This book explores how music is sacramental: able to serve as a means of divine revelation and transformative grace by way of a sacramental dynamic. Through participation in the mysteries of incarnation, beauty, contemplation, and fruitfulness, music is granted a pastoral value in the spiritual life.
