On the first Sunday in Lent, the solemn six weeks leading to Easter, Te Deum presented Victoria’s Maundy Thursday and Good Friday Lamentations in the beautiful acoustics and serene atmosphere of Our Lady of Sorrows. The chants woven throughout the concert were a special aspect of this performance. Te Deum brought in the world’s foremost expert on performing liturgical chant. Professor Eugene Liven d’Abelardo of the Netherlands. He was in residence for a week to coach our ensemble in Gregorian chant performance.
