This show will be dedicated to the towering figure of St Thomas Aquinas whose feast day is on this week on the 28th of January. Patron saint of catholic academies, schools and universities, St Thomas Aquinas is considered one of the Church’s greatest theologians and philosophers, and has held a considerable influence on western thought for centuries. An outstanding and prolific writer, he wrote a number of Eucharistic Hymns in verse that are still recited or sung in liturgy to this present day.
