Dear Friend of the Saint Gregory Society,

We have received news of this event sponsored by our friends at the
Society of St. Hugh of Cluny:

Noted liturgical scholar Fr. Uwe Michael Lang will give a lecture on
sacred art in the thought of Pope Benedict XVI on Wednesday, August
19th, in the parish hall of St. Mary Church, 669 West Avenue, Norwalk,
CT. The evening will begin at 7:00pm with Solemn Mass in the
Extraordinary Form. Music will include Palestrina=92s Missa sine nomine,
motets by Palestrina and Victoria, and all the proper Gregorian chants
for the Feast of St. John Eudes.

Many of you will recall Fr. Lang’s last appearance in New Haven in
2007, at an event featuring the German literary figure and prominent
traditionalist Martin Mosebach. Fr. Lang is presently a director of
the Master=92s degree program in architecture, sacred art, and liturgy
at the European University of Rome, and a Consultor to the Office for
the Liturgical Celebrations of the Supreme Pontiff. His study of the
orientation of liturgical prayer, “Turning Towards the Lord”, is
published by Ignatius Press.

All are welcome to attend.
