Regional Mass News and Special Events - Solemn High Mass and New TLMs

I have had a couple of seekers looking for Special Masses that were posted here previously. There will be a Solemn High Mass on Sunday in Virginia and it is posted here . There is also a Mass being inaugurated in May at St. Bartholomew's Church in Manchester and that is linked here. Finally, there WILL be a Solemn High Mass at Saint Alphonsus in June by a newly-ordained member of the F.S.S.P. and that is linked here . I hope that helps. I am unaware of any Solemn High Masses in Baltimore this weekend.

A Gem of a Find - The Recovering Choir Director!

I found a beautiful site called "The Recovering Choir Director" or "Cantemus Domino.net ." Please examine the website by Aristotle A. Esguerra if you would like. It is a musical treasure trove of information especially regarding the Graduale Romanum . Here are the Propers for the Votive Mass of the Holy Spirit (with audio and translations according to the Graduale Romanum ) . The MP3 links are quite beautiful. I have been listening to the Introit, "Caritas Dei diffusa est " (Romans 5:5, 10-11; Psalm 102:1). It is absolutely marvelous! The site has been added to the Favorites and Blogroll in the right menu.
