Holy Thursday. Mass In Cœna Domini

Massimo Palombella

Leonardo da Vinci, Last Supper, 1494-1498, (Museo del Cenacolo Vinciano, Milano)

Happy beginning of the Holy Triduum.

In the Mass In Cœna Domini, the first antiphon for the washing of the feet has the following text:
“Póstquam surréxit Dóminus a coéna,
mísit áquam in pélvim:
coépit laváre pédes discipulórum:
hoc exémplum relíquit éis.”

After rising from the table,
the Lord poured water into a basin
and began to wash the feet of his disciples.
Such is the example that he left them.).

The attached music, in Gregorian Chant, is taken from the Graduale Triplex published in Solesmes in 1979. The interpretation is by the CantArte Regensburg. The music track can be found on the CD Gregorian Chants (Passion) published in 2005 by Capriccio.

Heartfelt greetings.
