Sung Eucharist
15 August 2010 at 11:15 am
Alleluia, alleluia. My soul magnifies the Lord and my spirit rejoices in God my Saviour.
after Luke 1: 46–47
Join us in our celebration of prayer and praise, sung by the Choir of The Queen’s College, Oxford.
The Feast of the Blessed Virgin Mary celebrates the young woman chosen by God to be the mother of Jesus Christ. It is one of the major festivals of the Church year, and for two thousand years veneration of the theotokos (God-bearer) has inspired Christian theologians, writers, artists, and musicians.
The music will include Haydn’s Missa Sancti Nicolai and Vilette’s Hymne à la Vierge.
All are welcome to attend. No tickets required.
