St. Mary Church, Norwalk, Main altar and reredos

Polyphony has returned to St. Mary Church’s in Norwalk. Bishop Caggiano has granted permsion for a 4-voice schola. This Sunday, August 23, the Schola will sing William Byrd’s Mass for Four Voices at the 9:30 a.m. Solemn Mass.

Since the 9:30 a.m. Mass at St. Mary’s now regularly reaches its mandated capacity of 100 people, a Missa cantata (Extraordinary Form sung mass) will be added to the Sunday schedule at 11:30 a.m. Charles and Elizabeth Weaver will provide music at the 11:30 Mass this Sunday, August 23, including Ludovico Viadana’s Missa Dominicalis for solo voice with lute accompaniment.

Please call the church office at 203-866-5546 x 101 to make a reservation (as with all our weekend Masses).
