Solemn Masses & Other Special Liturgies during the Program Year ———————————————————————— The Holy Trinity Schola Cantorum Dr. Andrew H. Yeargin, Director of Music & Organist HOLY TRINITY CATHOLIC CHURCH CATHOLIC TRINITY HOLY HOLY TRINITY CATHOLIC CHURCH 213 West 82nd Street, New York, NY 10024 | (212) 787-0634 September 14, 2019 The Feast of the Exaltation of the Holy Cross Dear Friends, Welcome to a new season of ecclesiastical music at the Church of the Holy Trinity. We are pleased to share with you this music brochure outlining our week-to-week selections of liturgical music for the 2019–2020 season. In addition to the highly diverse offerings in repertoire each Sunday, we are especially excited to present a concert performance of Johannes Brahms’s German Requiem with orchestra in March 2020. We hope you can join us regularly throughout the season for an enriching year of inspiring and evocative sacred music. OUR PHILOSOPHY ABOUT SACRED MUSIC: Music is an integral part of the worship experience, and is part of what binds together the many aspects of liturgy…the “mortar between the bricks,” so to speak. At times, the congregation is invited to sing hymns or refrains, adding their voices to countless others in a unified act of prayer and celebration. At other times, the choir or cantor may sing alone— offering prayers on behalf of the entire assembly—while the congregation reflects silently. In either instance—joining in song or prayerfully listening to others—the assembled congregation is actively participating in the litury.

  • Stellenbosch University Research Report 2004
    STELLENBOSCH UNIVERSITY RESEARCH REPORT 2004 Editor: Senior Director: Research Stellenbosch University Stellenbosch 7602 ISBN 0-7972-1170-5 i FOREWORD The 2004 Research Report provides a comprehensive record of the University's research outputs. In addition to this overall survey of research at the institution, perspectives are provided on the performance of individual faculties and departments. Further statistical perspectives on research output and the nature of research activities are presented in other publications of the Division of Research Development, i.e. Research @ Stellenbosch; and Perspectives of Stellenbosch University. As in the past, a variety of persons and organizations contributed to the University's research programme. Stellenbosch University wishes to express particular recognition to the statutory research councils and commissions, government departments, private enterprises, foundations and individuals for their continued support of our research. As far as research funding is concerned, researchers at South African universities are increasingly dependent upon new sources for research funding. This includes national and international opportunities alike. Stellenbosch University therefore attaches great value to regional cooperation and substantive scientific agreements with other universities local and abroad, and to bilateral research and development agreements between South Africa and other countries. Apart from the active support of research by the University's management, a variety of internal support services provide assistance to researchers. These include the library and information services, capacity building workshops, information technology, infrastructure, the maintenance of laboratories and equipment, central analytical services, and support from the administrative and financial divisions, without which it would be impossible to conduct research of this calibre. We acknowledge with appreciation the dedication and excellent contributions made by Stellenbosch University staff members to the institution's research output.

  • Coronation Mass) K
    Missa in C (Coronation Mass) K. 317 It's no secret that Mozart did not get along very well with his boss in Salzburg. The Archbishop Count Colloredo had a somewhat heavy hand in dealing with the young composer, and was adamant about instituting ecclesiastical reforms, also supported by Emperor Joseph: keep the music short and tight. Moreover, Mozart's return to Salzburg in January,1779, after a long trip to Mannheim, Munich and Paris, was a rather glum affair. His attempts at gaining a position, or at the very least, strong patronage throughout the trip, were only modestly successful; most tragic of all, his mother had died quite suddenly the previous July (1778), while in Paris. Now back in Salzburg in mid-winter, Mozart prepared what was to be his penultimate mass for the Archbishop (Mozart moved to Vienna in 1781) - - indeed the next to last complete mass of his life, since the great c minor mass (K. 427) and the Requiem (K. 626), which came during his Vienna years, were left incomplete (his last complete mass K.337, was written in 1780). Without question, however, the present mass (K. 317), commonly known as the “Coronation” mass, is the outstanding mass of Mozart's “Salzburg” years. While in many ways he adheres to the dictum of the reforms (the whole mass should last no more than three-quarters of an hour), there is a grandness and majesty to the whole which belies its relatively brief length. The construction is mainly homophonic, and the entire mass comes in at just under half-hour in length, but the effect of the whole is more akin to a missa solemnis - - a grand and powerful experience.

    MOZART’S CORONATION MASS ​ ​​ ​ ​​ VIENNA​ PHILHARMONIC​ ORCHESTRA​ ​ ​ ​ ​ SAINT PETER BASILICA ​ ​ ​ ​ CELEBRATION OF HOLY MASS BY POPE JOHN PAUL II ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ JUNE 29, 1985 – THE FEAST OF SAINTS PETER AND PAUL ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ In Evangelium Vitae Saint John Paul II proposed a sweeping reorientation of modern ​ culture in all the many facets of human society. Preeminent among them is the celebration of liturgy: ​ ​ We are called to express wonder and gratitude for the gift of life and to welcome, savor and share the Gospel of life not only in our personal and community prayer, but above all in the celebrations of the liturgical year. Particularly important in this regard are the Sacraments, the efficacious signs of the presence and saving action of the Lord Jesus in Christian life. The Sacraments make us sharers in divine life, and provide the spiritual strength necessary to experience life, suffering and death in their fullest meaning. Thanks to a genuine rediscovery and a better appreciation of the significance of these rites, our liturgical celebrations, especially celebrations of the Sacraments, will be ever more capable of expressing the full truth about birth, life, suffering and death, and will help us to live these moments as a participation in the Paschal Mystery of the Crucified and Risen Christ. EV 84. Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart found rich opportunity to give voice to his talent in composition for Holy Mass. His Coronation Mass was celebrated with Pope John Paul II at Saint ​ Peter Basilica on the Feast of Saints Peter and Paul, June 29, 1985. The Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra with two choirs, under the direction of Herbert von Karajan, performed Mozart’s masterpiece.
