Choral Mass of St. Hildegard
On Tuesday, September 17 at 7 pm, the Collegium Institute and Durandus Institute are organizing a choral Mass to celebrate the feast of St. Hildegard of Bingen: the renowned 12th century mystic, composer, and Doctor of the Church. Music will feature an all-women’s schola to sing St. Hildegard’s own Latin musical compositions throughout the liturgy, accompanied by medieval instruments of her era (harp, psaltery, hurdy-gurdy). A short talk on St. Hildegard’s music will be given before the start of Mass, and a reception will follow outside. Location: St. Agatha-St. James Church, 3728 Chestnut St, Philadelphia (near the Penn campus).
