Circling Around the Triduum: James MacMillan's Musico-Theological Vision

Theologian Jeremy Begbie, of Duke Divinity School and Cambridge University, will give the inaugural Calvin M. Bower Lecture in the LaBar Performance Hall, O'Neill Hall, Wed. November 14 at 7 PM.  His topic is: “Circling around the Triduum: James MacMillan’s Musico-Theological Vision.” Professor Begbie is a systematician who works on aesthetics, and especially at the intersection of music and religious thought and experience. This lecture will examine the ways that the music of a leading Roman Catholic composer is integrally bound up with his vision of Christ’s crucifixion and resurrection.
