Conference "When poetry meets theology through music and song" by R.P. Philippe-Marie Margelidon, op, doctor of theology.
Saint Thomas Aquinas, a major Christian theologian and thinker, accords music an essential and irreplaceable place in prayer and in our relationship with the Absolute. Author of the Office of the Blessed Sacrament, he has inspired generations of composers from the 13th to the 21st century. In this lecture, we will explore St. Thomas' teachings on music in the liturgical context. The principles that guide his thinking are surprisingly relevant today, offering us a profound perspective on how music can enrich our spiritual experience.
