Description
The Henry Mary Festival invites you to an exceptional evening celebrating spirituality, heritage and dialogue between Corsica and Italy. To mark the 800th anniversary of the death of Saint Francis of Assisi, this evening brings together two prestigious ensembles: the Papal Musical Chapel of the Basilica of Saint Francis of Assisi and the Sartène Men’s Choir.
In the majestic setting of the Church of Saints Cosmas and Damian in Sartène, the voices will come together for a programme dedicated to the Franciscan sacred repertoire, celebrating the universal message of peace, brotherhood and humility championed by Saint Francis. A rare and deeply moving musical encounter, bringing this latest edition of the Henry Mary Festival to a close in the spirit of passing on and sharing.
