Saturday promises to be a big day of music-making.
In the morning I will be playing for High Mass at St Aloysius, Caulfield, for the feast of Our Lady Help of Christians.
Here's the organ music I have planned for the service.
Cantilena — Marcel Dupre
Ave Maris Stella — Marcel Dupre
Nigra sum, sed formosa — Marcel Dupre
Fugue — S.S. Wesley
In the afternoon I will be conducting a piece in the Australian Youth Choir winter concert. This is a bit of a milestone in the choir's year, given that for the newest choristers it is often their very first time on stage. Coming to sing in the concert is a big step in their life as choir members.
