Requiem Mass this Friday


If anyone is able to get here on Friday evening, we are fortunate to be welcoming Archbishop Malcolm McMahon to celebrate a Requiem Mass in this month of November. It should be worth coming along. Some excellent music and a hot supper afterwards! The music includes:

Sacerdos et Pontifex by Peter Smedley (Director of Music at St Barnabas Cathedral Nottingham from 1964 – 2003 d. 2012)

Missa pro defunctis by Giovanni Francesco Anerio (c. 1567 –1630)

IN PARADISUM from the Requiem in D Minor by Gabriel Faure (1845 – 1924)

May the angels lead you into paradise; may the martyrs receive you at your arrival

Libera me Domine by Colin Mawby b. 1936 (this piece of music was written for the occasion of the Requiem Mass of H.E. William Cardinal Godfrey in 1963)

Mass is at 7.30pm
Friday 6th November
St Catherine Labouré
