°Õ²¹¾±³úé - Brother Paolo
Last updated: 21 March 2010
The distinctive music of °Õ²¹¾±³úé is sung around the world in churches of almost every Christian tradition and every year, thousands of young people make a pilgrimage to the little French village which is home to the first ecumenical community in Europe. They study and play, worship and sing, pursuing the original °Õ²¹¾±³úé goal of 'struggle and contemplation'.
In this week's "All Things Considered" (Sunday 21 March, 8.30am, ´óÏó´«Ã½ Radio Wales and repeated on Wednesday 24 March at 6.30pm), we hear from Brother Paolo who hails from the Forest of Dean and who has been a member of the community for 30 years. He's been in Wales as part of an extensive speaking tour of the UK and talks to Roy Jenkins about the origins of °Õ²¹¾±³úé, the faith journey which led him to become a monk, and the impact of the killing of the founder Brother Roger in 2005.
