Whit Sunday
St. George's Church, Hanover Square, London, will be performing my Missa Veni Sancte Spiritus at the 11.00am service on Sunday June 4th. The mass is based on the plainchant sequence Veni Sancte Spiritus which is always sung on Whit Sunday, so the mass is entirely appropriate. The mass was originally written for 2-part choir (women and men) and organ, but St. George's will be using the version for 4-part choir and organ. June 4th will, I think, be the 1st performance of this version.
