Music for the Feast of the Presentation today
-
Just wanted to share this piece by Francesco Guerrero on the feast of the infant Mary being presented to the Temple and the artwork by Titian.
Beata Dei Genitrix Maria, Virgo perpetua, Templum Domini, Sacrarium Spiritus Sancti: sola sine exmplo placuisti Domino Jesu Christo, Alleluia.
(Blessed Mother of God Mary, ever a Virgin, temple of the Lord, shrine of the Holy Ghost: alone without peer thou didst please our Lord Jesus Christ)
