Tenebrae
Spy Wednesday 2001

 

The nocturnal office of Tenebrae, a sustained reflection on the treachery of Judas, the privation of holiness, and the need for conversion, was chanted on Spy Wednesday by the Schola Amicorum directed by Mr. John Salisbury.  Rev. Fr. Charles Higgins chanted the service's Gospel texts.
