A RELIC OF JOHN PAUL II WILL BE TAKEN TO LOURDES
Vatican City, 19 October 2012 (VIS) - A relic of Blessed John Paul II will be
transported to the French shrine of Lourdes during a pilgrimage organised by
UNITALSI (Italian National Union for Transport of the Sick to Lourdes and
International Shrines).
The pilgrimage is to take place from 21 to 27 October.
Archbishop Zygmunt Zimowski, president of the Pontifical Council for Health
Pastoral Care, has granted UNITALSI permission to take a reliquary containing
blood of John Paul II, so that it can be seen and venerated by pilgrims from
all over the world.
Speaking on Vatican Radio Salvatore Pagliuccia, president of UNITALSI, noted
that we currently are in the Year of Faith, and the Synod of Bishops is
meeting to examine the question of new evangelisation, "a theme very close to
John Paul II's heart".
That Pope's "influence is still felt in the Church and among the faithful", he
said. Thus, "the presence of the reliquary of the blessed on the pilgrimage is
a very significant sign, because it represents the presence of his ideas and
his sentiments,
above all the presence of the love which, as man and as pastor, he gave to
people, to the faithful, and in particular to the sick and those with
disabilities".

INTERNATIONAL FESTIVAL OF SACRED MUSIC AND ART TO BE DEDICATED TO THE YEAR OF
FAITH
Vatican City, 19 October 2012 (VIS) - The eleventh edition of the
International Festival of Sacred Music and Art - which takes place during the
autumn in Rome's patriarchal basilicas and in the Vatican - is to be dedicated
to the Year of Faith.
The festival serves to promote the activities of the "Fondazione pro Musica e
Arte Sacra", an organisation presided by Hans-Albert Courtial which has the
mission of restoring the artistic treasures contained in the patriarchal
basilicas, and ensuring
that sacred music continues to be played there.
This year's programme includes seven concerts due to take place between 2 and
13 November. The first will be the Requiem Mass of Giovanni Sgambati to be
performed by the Roman "Sinfonietta" Orchestra in the basilica of St. Ignatius
of Loyola. In the
same basilica on Wednesday 7 November the Orchestra of Rome's "Teatro
dell'Opera" will play Anton Bruckner's Symphony No. 7. On 11 November a
private concert will take place in the Vatican at which the Sistine Chapel
Choir will sing the "Missa Anno
Santo", composed by the Pope's brother Msgr. Georg Ratzinger. On the same day
in the basilica of Santa Maria in Aracoeli, the Johann-Rosenmuller-Ensemble
will perform Claudio Monteverdi's "Vespers of the Blessed Virgin Mary". On 12
November a concert
will take place in the papal basilica of St. Mary Major with a performance of
"Polyphony of the Roman School" by the Sistine Chapel Choir, and "Six
Centuries of Catholic Choral Music from the British Isles" by the Westminster
Cathedral Choi
r. On
13 November, the Westminster Cathedral Choir conducted by Martin Baker will
sing during a Mass in St. Peter's Basilica celebrated by Cardinal Angelo
Comastri. Also on 13 November, the festival will come to an end with a concert
at the papal basilica of
St. Paul's Outside-the-Walls at which the Wiener Philharmoniker Chamber
Orchestra will play a programme of music by Mozart.
Commenting on the coming festival Cardinal Comastri, who is honorary president
of the "Fondazione pro Musica e Arte Sacra", said: "This a music born of the
faith, and thus a music which also attracts to the faith. All art in the
Church is, in fact,
nothing other than an expression of inner beauty translated into exterior
forms".
