Medieval Hymns for Advent

Medieval Hymns for Advent

Join Tisch Special Collections and the Tufts University Chaplaincy for a presentation of medieval music for the season of Advent during services on Sunday, December 8th in Goddard Chapel!

Our Manuscript 27 is a late 14th century Italian antiphonal, a choir book designed for the singing of monastic prayers - in this case, chants for the first Sunday of Advent through Epiphany.

At the 5:00 PM Catholic Mass and the 7:00 PM Protestant Worship, members of the Tufts community will sing selections from this manuscript.

Come learn about the origins of familiar Christmas hymns like “O Come, O Come Emmanuel” and celebrate this beautiful musical tradition!
