Christian Newswire/ -- Franciscan Sisters of Christian Charity feature a specially curated selection of deeply discerned inspirational music from Holy Thursday through the Triduum at
fscc-calledtobe.org.
Houston's Radio Walsingham station master and hymnographer Vincent Uher offers comments on each of the selections to encourage even more meaningful and prayerful listening.
Radio Walsingham internet radio station broadcasts Catholic teaching and glorious music according to the liturgical calendar. The music comes from the Rites and Churches of the Catholic Church together with the Catholic best from the Anglican tradition, the Holy Orthodox Church, and others.
Among the selections are "Ubi caritas et amor, Deus ibi est' — 'Where charity and love are, God is there" on Holy Thursday and the "Improperia" (The Reproaches) sung or chanted in English on Good Friday.
Holy Saturday's selection include O Vos Omnes by contemporary American composer Blake R. Henson. Born in Texas, the composer serves as Assistant Professor of Music at St. Norbert College. "I find his setting to be sheer genius as it finds a balance between the depths of grief, the wailing of the afflicted, and the clear presentation of the text." offered Uher. "Our recording is from the Choirs of a thriving Basilian parish, St. Anne Catholic Community in Houston, Texas. James Ross is the Director of Liturgy and Music, and Matthew McCue is the Assistant Director of Music."
The Franciscan Sisters of Christian Charity serve in Health Care, Education and Parish-Community Service in twelve dioceses in the Southwest, Central and Upper Midwest.
