  • Download City Events, February 2016
    _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________ February 2016 Published by FCC in conjunction with the Archdeaconry of London www.cityevents.website _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Sword Rests of the City The historic churches of the City of London contain many unusual and interesting furnishings and fittings. Among the most intriguing are the sword rests which are present in so many of the churches in the “square mile”, but in very few other locations in the country. Sword rests, or sword stands as they are sometimes called, were originally installed in City churches to hold the Lord Mayor's sword of state when he visited a different church every Sunday, a practice which ceased in 1883. The Lord mayor would be accompanied by various officers of the City, including the swordbearer, who would place the ceremonial sword upright in a sword rest, most commonly attached to the front pews. The oldest surviving rest dates from 1664 and the majority were installed in the 18th and 19th centuries. There are 58 surviving sword rests originating from City churches or livery halls. Two thirds of these can be seen in City churches, four are in livery halls, while the remainder are either in storage in churches or in museums . Two can be seen in All Hallows Twickenham, a Wren church rebuilt in the suburbs in 1939. All the sword rests, with the exception of that in St Michael Cornhill, are surmounted by a royal crown and almost all have the City’s coat of arms prominently displayed. Many also show the royal arms, the coat of arms of at least one Lord Mayor and, in a number of cases, the arms of the livery company of which dthe Lor Mayor was a member.

  • Fürstenfelder Orgelkonzerte 2015
    Auf Erfolgskurs Die Fürstenfelder Orgelkonzerte 2014 hatten gegenüber den Vorjahren einen deutlichen Besucherzuwachs zu verzeichnen. Für diesen enormen Zuspruch bedanken wir uns bei den hervorragenden Musikerkollegen und vor allem bei den geschätzten Besuchern ganz herzlich. Nun freuen wir uns auf die neue Saison mit bekannten Organisten und diesmal vermehrt auch Organistinnen: Renommierte Künstler und Nachwuchstalente aus der Region stehen neben internationalen Größen. Es ist uns unter anderem gelungen, für den 9. August den weltbekannten Stephen Tharp aus New York nach Fürstenfeld zu holen, der eigens für die Fux-Orgel ein Werk komponieren und zur Uraufführung bringen wird. Schon im letzten Jahr konnte man erleben, dass die alte Orgel sehr gut mit neuen Tönen zurechtkommt. Einige Male kommt auch die klangschöne Marienorgel, die sich im Chor der Kirche befindet, zum Einsatz. Erstmals bringen die vereinigten lokalen kirchlichen Chöre mit Haydns Schöpfung ein großes Oratorium in der Klosterkirche zu Gehör. Zum Feuerwerk bei den Gartentagen erklingt ebenfalls erstmals live auf der Fux-Orgel die Feuerwerksmusik von Georg Friedrich Händel und bei der Brucker Kulturnacht können Sie etwas Exquisites und Seltenes erleben: die Kombination Orgel und E-Gitarre. Mit besten Grüßen, Ihr Christoph Hauser Die Fürstenfelder Orgelmatinéen beginnen jeweils um 12:10 Uhr – nach der Sonntagsmesse – und dauern etwa 45, im Advent etwa 30 Minuten. Mit Ausnahme der Silvester- und Neujahrskonzerte finden alle Orgelkonzerte bei freiem Eintritt statt. Dies ist nur mit finanzieller Unterstützung der Besucher durchführbar. Deshalb bitten wir Sie am Ausgang um Ihren großzügigen Beitrag. Ihre Spende ist als Honorar für die Gastmusiker und für die Erhaltung der beiden wertvollen Orgeln bestimmt.
