Coinciding with the opening weekend of the Salzburg Festival, members of the Newman Consort travelled to Salzburg in July 2017 to sing for Mass and perform a spiritual concert featuring music of the English Renaissance. Both took place on Sunday 23 July in the Wolf Dietrich Mausoleum, built 1597-1603 in the center of St. Sebastian’s Cemetery, housing the remains of the prince archbishop (d. 1617) responsible for much of the city’s Baroque core. The concert featured works by Byrd, Cornysh, Morley, and Tallis.
We are extremely grateful to the FSSP in Salzburg and to the Oxford Ordinariate Mission for their support.
