Posted by   Published in Masses

The Viri Galilaei, under the direction of David Hughes, will be singing two Masses for feasts of Our Lady later this week.  The first will be on Thursday, March 25th, at 6:00p at St. Joseph’s in Danbury, for the Feast of the Annunciation.  The second will be on Friday, March 26th at 7:30p at St. Josaphat’s in Bayside, Queens.  At both Masses, they will be singing Machaut’s magisterial Messe de Nostre Dame, the earliest polyphonic Mass by a single known composer.  According to David Hughes, “As part of our Lenten practice, we’ve been working on the piece every Saturday this Lent, and hope that it will bear good fruit at these Masses.”
