Polyphonic TLM in Ramsgate, Kent

Posted on 5 June 2009 by Fr. John Zuhlsdorf

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.

    The Bishops of England and Wales have transferred the Feast of Corpus Christi from Thursday to Sunday and so this Mass will be that of Corpus Christi and will be followed by a procession of the Blessed Sacrament.
