Divine Office: Terce and Mass
The fourth of the Canonical Hours with the Tallis Scholars and Peter Phillips, the office of Terce with Mass.
The Office of Terce with Mass
The culmination of Radio 3鈥檚 鈥淐apturing Twilight鈥� season continues with the fourth office of the Liturgy of the Hours, which is being broadcast throughout the day. The Tallis Scholars, conducted by Peter Phillips, evoke this ancient Christian tradition, which started just as the clocks changed back to Greenwich Mean Time at 1am this morning. They sing settings of words and psalms associated with each of the eight services, also known as Divine Office, a monastic rule laid down in the 6th century by St Benedict; a daily ritual which remains familiar in monasteries and convents around the world today.
Traditionally at 9am, the office of Terce is followed by a setting of the Mass by Orlande de Lassus, interspersed with Latin chant.
