Masses in Reading and Oxford

I've not been processing videos recently, since I need new processing software and anyway I've not had the time. But we have had some splendid Masses already this term.

We sang in SS Gregory and Augustine three Masses in succession: Sunday 15th January, Epiphany, and Candlemas. We had a very large schola for 15th Jan, including polyphonists. IMG_8695

Epiphany was a beautiful candlelit Mass, with the blessing of candles. IMG_8663

Candlemas also included the procession, at which there are a number of special chants.

Last Sunday we were in Reading.

We had polyphony there too and had a very jolly lunch afterwards. This Saturday we are singing at Milton Manor, in the private chapel of the Barret (now Mockler-Barret) family, an opportunity to see this lovely house and the chapel dedicated by the saintly Bishop Richard Challoner. Mass is at 11.30am, and will be celebrated by Fr Anthony Conlon.
