In the current Roman Calendar, The Feast of The Seven Sorrows of The Virgin is Celebrated on 15 September. This date is a relatively recent change to a Devotion that has its roots in the Late-Middle-Ages.
In this Talk, we will hear the fascinating story of the origins of the Feast and how Devotion to The Seven Sorrows grew out of a period of severe economic crisis, civil war, and famine.
We will view images of the earliest surviving source of music for this Feast — a beautifully-illuminated manuscript containing both Plainchant and Polyphony — and early artistic renderings of The Virgin of Sorrows.
