Welcoming the Advent Calendar Archbishop Eamon said, “While it is has been a very trying year for all us due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the season of Advent offers a new beginning and a promise of hope for better times. The First Sunday of Advent is actually the Christian Church’s New Year’s Day. This year – perhaps more than ever – we need more than ever ideas and inspiration to help us delve deeper during our hours of isolation and restriction, to find that glimmer of light, that note of joy, that promise of consolation. The virtual calendar offers ideas to help us spiritually prepare for our Lord’s coming at Christmas with thoughtful reflections as well as challenges for change and conversion. Every day of our lives presents a moment to prepare for the coming of the Lord – we continually stay alert and prepared for the unexpected moment when the Lord comes to us in other people, in our daily experiences, including his presence in the sick, the poor and the stranger.

Exclusivism should never be the dominant tone of any Catholic school.” Archbishop Martin said, “Failure to invest in fostering the educational opportunity of the disadvantaged from an early age is economical nonsense, which will end up in requiring greater investment when indeed it may be too late and less effective.

  • Leksykon Polskiej I Światowej Muzyki Elektronicznej
    Piotr Mulawka Leksykon polskiej i światowej muzyki elektronicznej „Zrealizowano w ramach programu stypendialnego Ministra Kultury i Dziedzictwa Narodowego-Kultura w sieci” Wydawca: Piotr Mulawka [email protected] © 2020 Wszelkie prawa zastrzeżone ISBN 978-83-943331-4-0 2 Przedmowa Muzyka elektroniczna narodziła się w latach 50-tych XX wieku, a do jej powstania przyczyniły się zdobycze techniki z końca XIX wieku m.in. telefon- pierwsze urządzenie służące do przesyłania dźwięków na odległość (Aleksander Graham Bell), fonograf- pierwsze urządzenie zapisujące dźwięk (Thomas Alv Edison 1877), gramofon (Emile Berliner 1887). Jak podają źródła, w 1948 roku francuski badacz, kompozytor, akustyk Pierre Schaeffer (1910-1995) nagrał za pomocą mikrofonu dźwięki naturalne m.in. (śpiew ptaków, hałas uliczny, rozmowy) i próbował je przekształcać. Tak powstała muzyka nazwana konkretną (fr. musigue concrete). W tym samym roku wyemitował w radiu „Koncert szumów”. Jego najważniejszą kompozycją okazał się utwór pt. „Symphonie pour un homme seul” z 1950 roku. W kolejnych latach muzykę konkretną łączono z muzyką tradycyjną. Oto pionierzy tego eksperymentu: John Cage i Yannis Xenakis. Muzyka konkretna pojawiła się w kompozycji Rogera Watersa. Utwór ten trafił na ścieżkę dźwiękową do filmu „The Body” (1970). Grupa Beaver and Krause wprowadziła muzykę konkretną do utworu „Walking Green Algae Blues” z albumu „In A Wild Sanctuary” (1970), a zespół Pink Floyd w „Animals” (1977). Pierwsze próby tworzenia muzyki elektronicznej miały miejsce w Darmstadt (w Niemczech) na Międzynarodowych Kursach Nowej Muzyki w 1950 roku. W 1951 roku powstało pierwsze studio muzyki elektronicznej przy Rozgłośni Radia Zachodnioniemieckiego w Kolonii (NWDR- Nordwestdeutscher Rundfunk). Tu tworzyli: H. Eimert (Glockenspiel 1953), K. Stockhausen (Elektronische Studie I, II-1951-1954), H.

    Issue 54 July/August 2019 Archbishop Michael Neary to lead annual Croagh Patrick Pilgrimage on Ireland’s holy mountain Archbishop Michael Neary, Archbishop of Tuam, will lead the annual Reek Sunday Pilgrimage which will take place this weekend on Ireland’s holy mountain Croagh Patrick. The archbishop will be joined by Bishop Fintan Monahan of Killaloe and by pilgrims from across Ireland for the pilgrimage which has been undertaken for almost 1500 years. Croagh Patrick (2,510ft/765m), dominates the landscape of southwest Mayo both spiritually and physically. The pilgrimage is associated with Saint Patrick who, in 441, spent forty days and nights fasting on the summit, following the example of Christ and Moses. During Reek Sunday, Mass will be celebrated every hour on the summit, beginning at 8.00am, with the final Mass commencing at 2.00pm. Father Stephen Farragher will celebrate Mass as Gaeilge at 10.00am. Archbishop Neary will celebrate Mass at 11.00am and Bishop Fintan Monahan will celebrate Mass at 12.00noon. Pilgrims may also avail of the Sacrament of Reconciliation (Confession) at the summit from 7.30am to 2.00pm. Croagh Patrick is a physically demanding pilgrimage. Intending pilgrims should make themselves aware in advance of health and safety information about the mountain. Pilgrims should also heed the instructions of stewards, the mountain rescue teams, Order of Malta, and Gardaí. For more information see www.catholicbishops.ie. Joyful celebration as Bishop Michael Router ordained as Auxiliary Bishop of Armagh There were joyful celebrations in Saint Patrick’s Cathedral Armagh on Sunday 21 July for the episcopal ordination of Bishop Michael Router as Auxiliary Bishop of Armagh.

  • Leaving Certificate English – Guidelines For
    Draft Guidelines for Teacbers of Englisb Draft Guidelines for Teachers of English Leaving Certificate English Syllabus Draft Guidelines for Teacbers of Englisb Foreword The Minister for Education and Science has asked the National Council for Curriculum and Assessment (NCCA) to revise the subject syllabuses for the Leaving Certificate programme in the context of the national programme of curriculum reform currently in progress. This process of revision is being implemented on a phased basis. These Teacher Guidelines have been developed in association with the revised Leaving Certificate English syllabus, through the NCCA course committee, as an aid to teachers in the implementation of the new course. The Guidelines are intended as both a permanent resource for teachers and a resource for use in the in-career development programme for teachers, sponsored by the Department of Education and Science. These Guidelines are not prescriptive. They provide suggestions for teachers in relation to teaching practice. Particular attention is paid to aspects of the new syllabus which may not be familiar to teachers, in terms of content or methodology. The Guidelines are published jointly by the National Council for Curriculum and Assessment (NCCA) and the Department of Education and Science. Draft Guidelines fi)r 7>acber~ q fEnglish Acknowledgements The role of Mr. Tom Mullins (NCCA Education Officer for English) is a c k n o w l e d g e d for researching, writing and editing these Guidelines.

  • Faith Podcasts to Offer Reflections for Holy Week
    Faith podcasts to offer reflections for Holy Week Faithcast, the weekly faith podcast from the Irish Catholic Bishops’ Conference, is launching a special Holy Week. The Faithcasts will focus on how we can live Holy Week as people of faith in the context of the coronavirus pandemic. Faithcast is a mixture of interviews, news and stories of faith from the Catholic Church in Ireland. The podcast, which is usually published weekly, will now have a daily episode from Palm Sunday to Easter Sunday. Contributors to the Holy Week reflection series are: • Archbishop Eamon Martin, Archbishop of Armagh, Apostolic Administrator of the Diocese of Dromore and Primate of All Ireland • Bishop Denis Nulty, Bishop of Kildare and Leighlin • Bishop Fintan Monahan, Bishop of Killaloe • Caoimhe de Barra, CEO of Trócaire • Brother Richard Hendrick Ofm Cap • Father Vincent Sherlock of Achonry Diocese • Brenda Drumm, Catholic Communications Office • Ger Gallagher, Pastoral Worker in Dublin Diocese Contributors to the series will reflect on the meaning and symbolism of each of the days of Holy Week, beginning with a reflection from Brother Richard Hendrick on Palm Sunday and taking us through the week, concluding on Easter Sunday with a message from Archbishop Eamon Martin. Commenting on the Faithcasts, Archbishop Eamon said, “As we prepare to celebrate Holy Week at home this year, we are offering people a chance to hear from different voices of faith. These daily reflections from bishops, priests and lay people will hopefully offer listeners a pause for thought from Palm Sunday to Easter Sunday. “I invite people to tune in to our Holy Week reflections.
