Hans-Albert Courtial IIIIII IINNTTEERRNNAATTIIOONNAALL SSAACCRREEDD MMUUSSIICC CCHHOOIIRR FFEESSTTIIVVAALL Rome and the Vatican City July 27th – 30th, 2007 Dear Choirmasters, Choristers and Friends of choral music, It is a pleasure for me to welcome the choristers that take part in the III International Festival of Sacred music. The wonderful city of Roma hosts the Festival which is extraordinary for the variety of the participating choirs and for artistic level of the repertoires performed by the choirs. Choirs have always fascinated me in a particular way, not only in the moment of performance when the union of voices produces intense emotions, but also in their preparation. Getting used to be in a group, having a certain determined role, understanding that only a common effort will create great results, this has always appeared to me as a highly qualifying school. The aim of our Festival is to promote the unifying power of music, which improves contacts among cultures, traditions and people. I am sure that your stay in Roma will bring pleasant, interesting, joyful and sometimes unforgettable experience for the choirs from all over the world. I wish all of you to enjoy our Festival and have nice days in this magnificent city. Sen. h.c.

In essa si inaugurarono le cattedre di filosofia e di teologia il 6 no- vembre 1553, si conferirono i primi titoli accademici (dottorato in teologia) il 6 febbraio 1556, e si ebbe la prima rinnovazione dei voti il 6 gennaio 1557, dopo un triduo predicato dal padre Nadal. Gli scolastici vennero suddivisi in tre gruppi, per rinnovare i voti durante le Messe celebrate dai padri Bobadilla, Nadal e Polanco. Alla fine di via del Gesù si gira a destra verso via del Piè di Marmo. Più o meno dov’è oggi il Piè di Marmo, c’erano due case che Ignazio affittò nel 1552 come sede dell’appena fondato Collegio Germanico. L’anno seguen- te, dopo essere stato ospitato per alcuni mesi nel palazzo dei Cesarini (Largo Argentina), il collegio, in espansione, trovò una sede molto più ampia tra le chiese di Santo Stefano del Cacco e di San Giovanni, nella piazza della Pigna.

    INFORMATION FOR VISITORS TO ROME & THE ITALIAN CAMPUS Roma/ LAZIO, ITALIA The Duquesne in Rome is located in a neighborhood of Rome called “Boccea”. The campus is accessible via public transportation. The closest metro stops to campus are Battistini, Cornelia, and Valle Aurelia, the last three stops on Line A. The campus is about a 15-20 minute walk from Battistini. From Cornelia and Valle Aurelia it is possible to catch the 906 Bus which stops right in front of the campus (Le Suore della Sacra Famiglia di Nazareth, Via Nazareth, 400 - Boccea). Once you are on Via Nazareth you will want to hit the stop button on the bus when you see the Yellow Gas Station on your left. The very next stop will let you off just past the Duquesne in Rome walls. See map below. TRAVEL ARRANGEMENTS TO ROME 1) Classic Travel & Tours: Families and friends of students studying at the Italian Campus are welcome to call and consult with Classic Travel and Tours in Pittsburgh, PA. Rick Sicilio and his staff have been helping Italian Campus families and friends for years.

You are required to closely examine the below prior to our travel to Italy. While abroad, you must be prepared to discuss these ideas and academic resources. I will be leading several discussion sessions while in Italy, and it is imperative that you are prepared for the conversation. Additionally, if you do not closely look over the below readings and videos, you will have no context for our museum visits. The result will be an experience that is not as deep and rich as possible. Additionally, being unprepared and non- participatory in the discussions will adversely affect your grade. To help you prepare, I listed a series of questions and bullets I will use to drive the discussions. I also inserted many webpage Wiki links to supplement the readings. I urge you to look these over as well. As you read/watch these items, please take notes when appropriate so you will be able to contribute to the conversation and ask pertinent questions.

    In occasione del 50° anniversario delle relazioni tra UE e Santa Sede, le Ambasciate degli Stati Membri e la Delegazione dell'Unione Europea hanno sviluppato l’Iter Europaeum, un cammino di chiese a Roma che racconta il legame storico tra la Santa Sede e l’Unione Europea con i suoi 27 Stati Membri. Le chiese e basiliche selezionate tra le strade di Roma sono cattoliche, ma anche evangeliche luterane e IL CMMINO DELLE ortodosse, e sono ognuna connessa ad uno Stato CHIESE EUROPEE ROM Membro, che sia per ragioni storiche e/o per la comu- nità presente in loco. Questa guida è elaborata in diverse lingue – secondo il volere delle Ambasciate – per poter abbracciare tutte le comunità europee presenti a Roma. Prima di visitare le chiese, si consiglia di controllare gli orari di apertura ed eventuali restrizioni Covid-19 sui siti web delle chiese. www.itereuropaeum.eu 50 anni di relazioni tra UE e Santa Sede IterLa Giustiniana Europaeum 1 23 3 6 4 21 7 19 22 7-8-28 10 9 24 6 26 2 20 3 25 5-12 4 5 4 27 8 1 | Austria 6 | Croazia 11 | Germania 15 | Lettonia 21 | Portogallo 25 | Spagna Santa Maria dell'Anima San Girolamo Chiesa del Cristo Santi Quattro Coronati Sant'Antonio San Pietro in Montorio 2 | Belgio dei Croati in Urbe (evangelica luterana) 16 | Lituania dei Portoghesi 26 | Svezia San Giuliano 7 | Danimarca 12 | Grecia Chiesa del Gesù 22 | Romania Santa Brigida dei Fiamminghi Campo Santo Teutonico San Teodoro al Palatino 17 | Lussemburgo San Salvatore a Campo de' Fiori 3 | Bulgaria 8 | Estonia 13 | Irlanda Sacro Cuore di Gesù alle Coppelle
