Anything related to music used in Catholic worship is appropriate here, including schedules, worship planning, publishers, performers, history, and so on. But there are several more specific related categories that should be considered first, where appropriate. Chant--Gregorian chant or plainsong--has its own category. Several types of music have a more (catholic-not-Catholic) interest and thus their own categories: hymns, carols, classical music.
