Arrival of Three Kings at WYD Mass

or rather two Queens and a King
Arrival of the Three Kings Posted by Picasa

The relics of the Three Kings are kept in Cologne Cathedral. In their honour, three young people dressed up as the Three Kings for the offertory procession, except two of the "Kings" were female.

The Mass was specially composed for the occasion. Missa Mundi- Mass of the World by Thomas Gabriel (what a strange title for a Catholic Mass, given Our Lord's comments in scripture). It combined some Gregorian chant with rhythms from around the world.

African rhythms or better to say pseudo-african rhythms.
