Corpus
Christi: a musical meditation
(Vatican
Radio) On Thursday, 4th of June 2015, Feast of Corpus Christi Pope Francis is
scheduled to travel across town to celebrate Holy Mass on the parvis of his
Cathedral, Saint John Lateran.
Following
Mass, he will lead the traditional Corpus Christi procession from there to the
nearby Basilica of Saint Mary Major, just over a mile away.
On
this occasion, as in many other such Corpus Christi processions across the
world, the monstrance with the Blessed Sacrament will be borne high for all to
see in adoration and prayer.
To
mark this yearly occasion we share with you a musical meditation which focuses
on the Fifth Mystery of Light: 'The Institution of the Eucharist'.
Among
the many Eucharistic texts set to music chosen for this meditation by our music
historian Monsignor Philip Whitmore is ‘O Sacrum Convivium’.
