Out and about on Sunday



This week I will be back at St Aloysius, Caulfield.  It's a high Sunday, as there is a special visit by a cardinal from overseas who will be confirming and celebrating High Mass.  This means there will be a fair crowd of people turning out both to support the confirmees and to see the visitor.

There is slightly more for the organ to do as a result, what with multiple vestings and de-vestings as an integral part of the ceremonial, plus covering movements of more than the usual number of processions.  The choir still gets the lion's share of the work.

Prelude
Adagio Triste from Sonata Cromatica — Pietro Yon
Andante con moto — Alexandre P.F. Boëly
Andante — Boëly
