Upcoming Presentations by Martin Mosebach

Posted by Stuart Chessman 

A happy and blessed New Year to all our members and readers! The Society will begin this year be sponsoring a return visit to the New York area by the eminent German novelist Martin Mosebach.  Mr. Mosebach spoke last in New York and Connecticut in September 2007. His prior visit coincided with the entry into force of Summorum Pontificum. Much has changed since then! It is a privilege to welcome back Mr. Mosebach and also to participate in the festive liturgies that will precede each of his presentations.

There are two main “events” scheduled so far:

Sunday, January 30, at the Church of Our Saviour, New York

5:00 PM Solemn High Mass
7:00 PM Presentation by Mr Mosebach in the undercroft: “The Old Roman Missal: Loss and Rediscovery”

Music:

Prelude: Prélude pour le troisième Dimanche après l’Epiphanie (Tournemire)
Missa Ave Maris Stella (Victoria)
Gregorian Mass of the Fourth Sunday after the Epiphany: Adorate Deum
Motet at the Offertory: Dextera Domini (Palestrina)
Motet at the Communion: Dominus regnavit (attrib. Josquin)
Postlude: Postlude et fugue modale libre (Tournemire)

Directed by David J. Hughes, Choirmaster of  St. Mary’s Church, Norwalk
