Three Tenebrae
From the Church of St. Mary Redcliffe. Bristol
The first of two programmes
This short setting of the Mass, one of Rubbra's most recent works, is dedicated to Henry Washington and the Church Music Association of the Society of St. Gregory. The three Tenebrae (In Monte Olveti, Tristis est anima mea, and Ecce vidimus eum) were written in 1956 and intended for performance on Maundy Thursday at matins.
The second programme, on January 18, will include the first broadcast performance of Rubbra's Oboe Sonata, Op. 100, and of his Festival Gloria, Op. 94.

This is the subject of Dr. Austin Farrer's Gifford Lectures published earlier this year. Some of the questions raised in his enquiry are discussed by D. M. MACKINNON , Professor of Moral Philosophy in the University of Aberdeen.
