We are very pleased that Blackfriars have once more agreed to host our performance of the Misa Campesina – the Nicaraguan Folk Mass. It will be celebrated on Sunday 17th March 2019 at 11.30 a.m.
The Mass, which will be sung in Spanish, has been sung annually in Oxford for many years. It has ‘passionate lyrics and complex rhythms reflecting the richness of the Nicaraguan folk traditions’.

There will be two rehearsals – on Saturday 9th March and Saturday 16th March between 10 and 11 a.m.in the Aula at Blackfriars as well as another short rehearsal at 10.45 on the 17th.

If you are interested in singing or playing your instrument in the Misa, please email Jenny Houston at jen_houston AT hotmail DOT com or 077 51 626 006.
