2019 Choir 50 Mass - 11:30 22 September
The next practice on Tuesday 17 September
is a 'must attend' occasion,
please. It will be our final rehearsal before our big occasion! A
last reminder of
the
music we shall be singing.
We will starting singing promptly at 20:00,
so please get
there early to finally sort your music.
Cantors - Archbishop John will (still not officially confirmed by Archbishop's House) be celebrating Mass for us with Father Philip as MC. Father Michael will also be attending, hopefully Father Paul, and, of course, Father Tomasz!! Sadly, we bid farewell to Michael on 22 September Another commitment is growing for him, and he is unable to accommodate us as well. We wish him well and thank him hugely for the time he spent with us and honouring his commitment to our big Mass. On Tuesday 24 September we will start another Novena. This will cause a re-think of our Christmas Concert programme. The Choir Committee will discuss it at their next meeting, which takes place on 26 September. |

For your coffee breaks Get in quick if you want to join a Marble and Mosaic Tour of Westminster Cathedral. My current favourite organ piece - Nocturne for an Orange by Porter Heaps. Have you ever heard of Stambourne Woods? The complete 2012 London Olympics Opening Ceremony. Whatever your politics one has to be impressed with this great blog entry from Fr. Z. and the video within it! Turn off Love Island and join a choir - hat tip to Gordon C. Why can't we make water? An interesting question... July's edition of Phillip Tolley's great British Choirs on the Net. Prom 19 this year was (sadly) on a Sunday morning - Oliver Latry (Notre Dame, Paris) was at the console at the RAH for an exhilarating recital. A thoughtful first homily from our new Archbishop. The Glass Armonica. Watch this and then The Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy! Wonderful!! And finally - The 58 recycling symbols that shame us all. |
