The Rorate Mass is a Votive Mass in honour of The Virgin Mary during the Season of Advent.
It has a long Tradition in The Catholic Church, especially in German-speaking areas.
The Mass has to begin relatively early in the morning, when it is still dark, due to Winter-Time, and is Said (or Sung) by Candlelight.
