On Thursday evening, Old St Patrick’s Cathedral in New York City will have a solemn celebration of Vespers for the feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe, with an accompanying chamber orchestra, and featuring music composed for the great cathedrals of Mexico, including works by Juan Gutiérrez de Padilla, Manuel de Sumaya, Ignacio de Jerusalem, and Santiago Billoni. Fr. David Michael Moses will be the guest preacher; the ceremony will conclude with Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament. This event is yet another splendid initiative of The Durandus Institute for Sacred Liturgy & Music, this time in conjunction with The Society of St Hugh of Cluny. See the Facebook event page here. The liturgy will begin at 7pm; the church is located at 261 Mott Street.
