Sacra Liturgia 2019 in Toronto

Fr. David Friel · January 31, 2018

VER THE last five years, the Sacra Liturgia organization has hosted a series of four very successful academic conferences on the sacred liturgy:

Rome (2013)
New York City (2015)
London (2016)
Milan (2017)

The series will return to North America, it has just been announced, with a 2019 conference in Toronto, Canada. Dates for the upcoming Sacra Liturgia will be June 17-20, 2019. This event is being hosted with the generous approval of the Archbishop of Toronto, Thomas Cardinal Collins. Information concerning the specific locations for the conferences and liturgies has not yet been released.

Speakers at the 2019 conference will include Malcolm Cardinal Ranjith, Raymond Leo Cardinal Burke, and Bishop Peter Elliott, among others.

Sacra Liturgia has also just announced the details of their Fifth International Summer School, to be held at the Monastère Saint-Benoît, in La Garde-Freinet, Provence, France.

The dates for this summer program will be July 27 – August 8, 2018.

Quick Thoughts

4 March 2021 • Can you spare 15 seconds?

Due to Covid-19, California has basically been under “lock down” for 11 months, and these restrictions have had quite a detrimental effect on our choral programs. We are frequently limited to just 2-3 singers, on account of regulations by the government and our Archdiocese. However, although the number of singers is quite small, I was struck by the beauty of the singing last Sunday. Listen to this 15-second live excerpt and see if you agree?

3 March 2021 • “A policeman” — really?

According to Monsignor Frederick R. McManus, there were “policemen” serving the Sanhedrin in the time of Our Blessed Lord. Look at this awful translation in the 1966 “Saint Andrew Bible Missal” from 1966. Yuck!

Surprising Popularity!

One of our most popular downloads has proven to be the organ accompaniment to “The Monastery Hymnal” (131 pages). This book was compiled, arranged, and edited by Achille P. Bragers, who studied at the Lemmensinstituut (Belgium) about thirty years before that school produced the NOH. Bragers might be considered an example of Belgium “Stile Antico” whereas Flor Peeters and Jules Van Nuffel represented Belgium “Prima Pratica.” You can download the hymnal by Bragers at this link.

Random Quote

“To me nothing is so consoling, so piercing, so thrilling, so overcoming, as the Mass, said as it is among us. I could attend Masses for ever, and not be tired.”

— John Henry Cardinal Newman (1848)
