Sung Mass for Church Centenary
Those
of you who regularly attend 11.15a.m. Mass on Sundays are familiar with much
of the music sung by the Parish Choir.
Some time ago, organist Margo Lombard, composed a Holy Holy and
Memorial Acclamation which is regularly sung by the choir during this Mass.
Now,
Margo has completed the music for all the Mass proper e.g. Gloria and Lamb of
God. This music has been published by
the Srs. of Mercy and dedicated to the centenary celebrations of this Church. We congratulate Margo on the completion
and publication of this delightful music.
The Parish Choir look forward to singing the completed work.
