The Resonantia Consort accompanied a Missa Cantata in the chapel of Magdelen College celebrated by Fr Daniel Lloyd of the Ordinariate, who is parish priest of the nearby parish South Hinksey.
They sang Missa Christi Virgo Dilectissima by Nicholas Ludford, a a very rare surviving Mass setting from before the Reformation written specifically for the Annunciation, and Nesciens Mater by Walter Lambe.
The organisers would like to thank the Dean, the Rev. Andrew Bowyer, who gave permission for this Mass. It was supported by the Latin Mass Society.
The Mass was very impressive. In 2008 I organised a Requiem in the same location for the birth of Cardinal Reginald Pole, an alumnus of the college.
