| Description |
The Eucharistic Miracle of the Consecrated Host represents one of the more significant religious traditions in the ancient town of Alatri. Inside the Cathedral of San Paolo, religious people can admire the Consecrated Host that miraculously turned into human flesh between 1227 and 1228. The memory of this miraculous event is reported in a papal letter sent by Gregory IX to a diocesan bishop on 13 March 1228. Each year, the town of Alatri organises an event in collaboration with the Cultural Association Coro Ernico. The event designed for year 2010 will see the participation of civil and religious delegations of The Cities of Bolsena, Lanciano and Siena, towns in which a similar miracle occurred. The 2010 recurrence will include a review of Polyphonic Choirs coming from the towns of Anagni, Assisi, Ceccano, Foggia, Macerata and Trani.
Conferences and meetings on topics related to the event and a competition for young composers of sacred songs will be held. The objectives of the event are: preservation of the memory of the Consecrated Host, promotion of religious tourism, dissemination of knowledge of the Eucharistic Miracle and cultural exchange between Polyphonic Choirs within Italy. |
