Polyphonic TLM in Ramsgate, Kent
From a reader:
Father Fisher at St Ethelbert and St Gertrude’s Church in Ramsgate (UK) will celebrate a traditional Latin mass in the Extraordinary Form on Sunday the 14th of June at 6pm, the first (hopefully) of a monthly 2nd Sunday EF sung mass in his parish.
The music will be sung by a choir of music scholars from the local university of Kent, and the mass setting will be Palestrina’s Missa Papae Marcelli, motets include Tallis’ O Sacrum Convivium and Duruflé’s Tantum Ergo.
It will be the only regular polyphonic mass in Kent.
Many thanks for this father!
