Forthcoming Services

Friday 8th December, 7:30pm.


Solemnity of the Immaculate Conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary
In Conceptione Immaculata Beatæ Mariæ Virginis ~ I. classis

Solemn High Mass (with St. Austin's Choir)
Roman Rite, Extraordinary Form

Proper from the Graduale Romanum
Arcadelt: Ave Maria
Palestrina: Alma Redemptoris Mater
Victoria: Gaude Maria

Not sure what the Mass setting will be yet, but it's likely to be either Byrd 4 or Casciolini.

Goodness knows how much room there will be in the chapel once the choir, sacred Ministers and servers have taken their places, so I suggest if you want to go, get there very early!
