    Gaude Maria Virgo, a work by the recusant Peter Philips (1561-1628), which like fellow recusant and composer William Byrd (c 1540-1623) is a song for five voices. While nowhere as eminent and wide-ranging as Byrd who counted Queen Elizabeth, Sir Henry Sidney as patron, and who avoided exile yet professed a near outlawed faith from the 1570s, Philips, later became a became a member of the household of Archduke Albert, governor of the Spanish Netherlands, was highly talented at teaching children the virginal. Most of all, he left this fine work.

    A song of the Cristero War (1926-1929) where persecution of Catholics and Catholicism by a Masonic, athestic Mexican government provoked resistant. It resulted in many martyrs, and this song represents their witness.



    A song honouring St Louis IX (1214-1270), rightly titled the 'Most Christian King' who fed beggars from his table, tended in person to lepers, and daily one hundred poor, (certainly heeding how James wrote 'faith without works is dead'), banned usury, crusaded without fear or let, banned usury, punished blasphemy, yet his rule was called 'the golden century of St Louis' such was the prosperity of France.

    The groanings of death have encircled me: the sorrows of hell have enclosed me.

    Part of the Office of the Dead, drawing on Psalm 114, 3. This arrangement by Cristábal de Morales would have been sung on the death of Emperor Charles V through the cities of the Empire from Cologne to Mexico City.

    It is a lovely song, but a little NSFW due to the graphic images so might what to give that warning.

    This is hilarious with no context.

    The wife shared this with me a few minutes ago - Its great to see so many churches involved in this - in our diversity is our unity! His Church seems to have found a new voice in current times

    Over an hour of the music of João Lourenço Rebelo, a Portuguese composer in a Venetian style, whose work mostly perished in the Lisbon earthquake of 1755. Psalms, the Magnificat and Lamentations are arranged here.
