Music for Sunday 26 December

I'm going to have a rolling series of posts about music for the coming days.  There's a lot to share, so I'll do it by drip-feed rather than one long image-ridden post.

This Sunday is being kept as the feast of the Holy Family with a memorial of St Stephen.  Because people will probably be a bit churched out after all the festivities of Friday and Saturday, there will be one celebration in the parish this week:

9.30am at St George's

Corner Byfield and Ralph Streets, Reservoir

This is the final week for one of the parish organists, so there will be a small reception after Mass to wish him well.

Readings are linked here.  The setting will be Philip Mathias' Christ Church Mass (Together in Song, 757).  Hymns are as follows:

Introit: Once in Royal David's city [312]
Sequence: Unto us a boy is born! [293]
Offertory: Come, your hearts and voices raising [297]
Communion: Child in a manger [319]
