Ionarts at Large: Andiamo a Roma

The Choir of the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception, of which I am a member, is in Rome this week. Tomorrow, we will be singing at the Papal Mass in St. Peter's (November 23, 10:30 am), along with several Masses at other churches in Rome throughout the week. This concert tour culminates with a concert on Wednesday, part of the 7th Festival Internazionale di Musica e Arte Sacra at Santa Maria Maggiore (November 26, 9 pm), preceded by a collaborative Mass, again at St. Peter's, at 5 pm.

If you happen to be in Rome, we hope to see you there. More pictures and cultural observations to follow.
