  • BATES, JAMES M., DMA Music in Honor of the Virgin Mary
    BATES, JAMES M., D.M.A. Music in Honor of the Virgin Mary during the Middle Ages and Renaissance. (2010) Directed by Dr. Welborn Young. 50 pp. Veneration of the Virgin Mary was one of the most important aspects of Christianity during the Middle Ages and Renaissance, and sacred music of the time incorporated many Marian concepts. The Virgin Mary was considered the greatest intercessor with God and Christ at a time when fear of Purgatory was strong. Prayers and devotions seeking her aid were among the most significant aspects of spiritual life, and texts of this kind were set to music for devotional use. Beyond her identity as intercessor, there were many additional conceptions of her, and these also found musical expression. The purpose of this study was, first, to explore the basic elements of Marian devotion, and, second, to examine how veneration of Mary was expressed musically. Seven musical compositions from c. 1200-1600 are examined as representative examples. The ―Marian aspects‖ of some compositions may be as straightforward as the use of texts that address Mary, or they may be found in musical and textual symbolism. Of special interest is a particular genre of motet used in private devotions. Precise and detailed information about how sacred music was used in the Middle Ages and Renaissance is scarce, but evidence related to this particular kind of devotional motet helps bring together a number of elements related to Marian meditative practices and the kind of physical settings in which these took place, allowing a greater understanding of the overall performance context of such music.

  • 7 Pope Francis Affirms the Essence of Marian Co-Redemption and Mediation
    Ecce Mater Tua Pope Francis Affirms the Essence of Marian Co-redemption and Mediation ROBERT FASTIGGI Some people believe Pope Francis has rejected the teaching of Marian co- redemption because he has made several statements that suggest he prefers not to call Mary, the co-redemptrix. We need, though, to ask what the title means. The great Mariologist, Fr. Gabriele Maria Roschini, O.S.M. (1900– 1977), gave a very brief but accurate explanation of what it means to call Mary, the Co-redemptrix of the human race: The title Co-redemptrix of the human race means that the Most Holy Virgin cooperated with Christ in our reparation as Eve cooperated with Adam in our ruin.1 From prior statements of Pope Francis, it’s clear that he affirms this doctrine. In his morning meditation for the Solemnity of the Annunciation in 2016, the Holy Father states: “Today is the celebration of the ‘yes’… Indeed, in Mary’s ‘yes’ there is the ‘yes’ of all of salvation history and there begins the ultimate ‘yes’ of man and of God: there God re-creates, as at the beginning, with a ‘yes’, God made the earth and man, that beautiful creation: with this ‘yes’ I come to do your will and more wonderfully he re-creates the world, he re-creates us all”. Pope Francis recognizes Mary’s “yes” as an expression of her active role in salvation history—a role that we can call coredemptive. During his January 26, 2019 vigil with young people in Panama, the Holy Father spoke of Mary as “the most influential woman in history.” He also referred to the Blessed Virgin as the “influencer of God.” Mary influenced God by saying yes to his invitation and by trusting in his promises.

  • The Way Cross
    Because of Covid-19 concerns, please keep this booklet as your personal copy to use throughout Lent. The Way of the Cross St. Benedict Catholic Church A Commentary on THE STATIONS OF THE CROSS– Could you walk a mile in Jesus’s shoes? The Stations of the Cross bring us closer to Christ as we meditate on the great love He showed for us in His most sorrow- ful Passion! Tradition traces this loving tribute to our Lord back to the Blessed Mother retracing her son’s last steps along what became known as the Via Do- lorosa (the Sorrowful Way) on His way to His Crucifixion at Calvary in Jerusalem. Pilgrims to the Holy Land commemorated Christ’s Passion in a similar manner as early as the 4th century A.D. The Stations of the Cross developed as devotion in earnest, however, around the 13th to 14th centuries. It became a way of allow- ing those who could not make the long, expensive, arduous journey to Jerusa- lem to make a pilgrimage in prayer, at least, in their church! Although the origi- nal number of stations varied greatly, they became fixed at 14 in the 18th centu- ry. The Stations of the Cross themselves are usually represented in churches by a series of 14 pictures or sculptures covering our Lord's Passion. They are meant to be “stopping points” along the journey for prayer and meditation. The Stations of the Cross provide us with great material for prayer and medita- tion. Tracing Jesus’s journey from condemnation to crucifixion increases both our sorrow for our sins and our desire for His help in avoiding temptations and in bearing our own crosses.

What does it truly mean to pay homage to her? my first sincere intent is to give her "something beautiful", just as one offers a lit candle or a flo- wer. but there is more. the mother of God is the Co-redemptrix who renews our faith through Christ and indicates the path to reach him. therefore, paying homage to the virgin mary through music means speaking of her so that she speaks to us about her son Jesus. it means writing music that uplifts us, revealing the unique mystery of the son and mother's holiness that allows us to comprehend in the gazes of the mother and son the "sanctity of suffering seen in the mirror and recognized as the same" (J.m. ibañes Langlois). this was not the first time thati had worked on a sacred piece.

  • Stabat Mater Dolorosa by Jacopone Da Todi (1230-1306) a Reflection
    Stabat mater dolorosa by Jacopone da Todi (1230-1306) A Reflection by Canon Jim Foley The liturgical hymn known as Stabat Mater is another example of the great medieval tradition of religious poetry which has enriched the church for a thousand years. Unfortunately, it has suffered much the same fate as the Dies Irae and Vexilla Regis. It has quietly disappeared from the public liturgy of the Church since Vatican II. If it has survived longer than most, it is probably because of the Stations of the Cross, a devotion still popular during Lent and Passiontide. One verse of our hymn is sung between the reflections associated with each Station. The verses are usually sung to a simple, but attractive plainsong melody, as the congregation processes around the church, pausing before each Stataion. The devotion itself, like the Christmas Crib, is attributed to Saint Francis of Assisi (1181- 1226). It was certainly promoted by the Franciscan tradition of piety to the extent that, for many years, the Franciscans alone had the faculty to dedicate the Stations of the Cross in places of worship. The Franciscans also pioneered research and excavations in the Holy Land in the hope of discovering the original Via Dolorosa across Jerusalem to Calvary. However, research by rival Jesuit and Dominican scholars in the Holy City has led to the promotion of other possible routes for the Via Dolorosa! While a student in Jerusalem I was surprised to see a citizen carrying a heavy wooden cross on his shoulders as he made his way, evidently unnoticed, along a busy street.

  • Stabat Mater Dolorosa
    STABAT MATER DOLOROSA Latin Hymn Celebrated During Lent Associated with the Stations of the Cross Introduction with Latin Lyrics & Common English Translation Our Lady Help of Christians – Utica, NY Http://www.olhcutica.com STABAT MATER DOLOROSA Adapted from a Translation by Edward Caswall The Stabat Mater Dolorosa started as a Latin poem in the 13th century about the Seven Dolors (Sorrows) of the Virgin Mary’s suffering at the Cross. It was turned into one of the most powerful Catholic Latin Hymns and was added to the missal by Pope Benedict XIII in 1727 for the Feast of the Seven Dolors of the Blessed Virgin Mary. The Church commemorates by two feasts, the martyrdom suffered by Our Lady in union with the Passion of her Son. The first feast especially, on the Friday before Good Friday, commemorates the Compassion of Mary; the second, kept on September 15, the devotion of the Seven Sorrows. At the Presentation of Our Lord in the Temple, Simeon said to Mary His mother: “Behold this Child is set for the fall, and for the resurrection of many in Israel, and for a sign which shall be contradicted; And thy own soul a sword shall pierce, that, out of many hearts, thoughts may be revealed.” The Seven Sorrows of the Blessed Virgin Mary • The Prophecy of Simeon • The flight into Egypt • Loss of the Holy Child at Jerusalem • Meeting Jesus on his way to Calvary • Standing at the foot of the Cross • Jesus being taken from the Cross • The Burial of Christ The Hymn Stabat Mater Dolorosa has been set to music by many composers, some of the most recognizable being, Joseph Hayden, Gioachino Rossini, Giuseppe Verdi, and Antonio Vivaldi.

  • An Interesting Phenomenon in the History of Music Is That Many Pieces
    Tudor Dedications to the Blessed Virgin: History, Style, and Analysis of Music from the Eton Choirbook - Vincent C. K. Cheung n interesting phenomenon in the history of music is that many pieces now regarded as great compositions had suffered long periods of A neglect before they began to receive the attention they deserve. A great majority of Mozart’s piano concerti were very rarely performed before the Great Wars; J. S. Bach’s cello suites were practically unknown to the musical world until Casals’ rediscovery of them in the 1920’s; similarly, the glorious Eton Choirbook, containing Magnificats and Marian antiphons for expressing Catholic sentiments, had been left virtually untouched on the shelves of the Eton College Library since around 1558 when the last Tudor monarch, Elizabeth I, restored Protestantism as the official religion of England, until the end of the 19th century. The existence of the Eton manuscript was first brought to musicologists’ notice by M. R. James. Once the Provost of Eton, James published in 1895 his Catalogue of the Manuscripts in the Library of Eton College which contains not only a description of the Choirbook, but also a transcription of its index. Following James’ catalogue were two detailed accounts of the manuscript, presented respectively by W. B. Squire in 1898 before the Society of Antiquaries, and D. A.
