In this five-volume series of reflections, Fr. Foley stretches a common understanding of mystagogy beyond the narrow interpretation from the Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults, which sees mystagogy essentially as a period of post-baptismal catechesis. Mystagogy, in its fuller sense, is a treasured way in which Christians have examined their faith over many centuries. It is an embodied, affective, community-based style of reflection that juxtaposes the action of the liturgy with our own experience of that action, and asks a series of often pointed and always essential questions. It demands that we wake up in worship, shake off the passivity that has enveloped us after years of repetition, and look afresh at the sacramental events that define us. The Word Resounds (a discussion of what it means to gather as a community of believers) The talks integrate familiar music with profound insights, and are perfect for use in the RCIA post-Vigil mystagogical process, for a parish staff retreat, or for personal spiritual reflection on the Mass and the Eucharist. Parish liturgy committees and other small groups will benefit from the accompanying booklet, which contains a process for reflection that includes questions to help delve deeper into the Eucharist as mystagogy. Also available as part of a 5-CD set, #002695.

The work calls to mind an important event from the history of the city Coesfeld in Germany: the battle of Varlar, which took place in the year 1454. The composition presents us with a bird's eye view of the events: First of all, the consecration of the chapel on the Klinkenberg mountain is set to music in a hymn, after which the trumpets and trombones announce the imminent battle. In the subsequent fray not only the sounds of sabres and rapiers can clearly be heard but also the wailing of the wounded. When the Duke of Brunswick is wounded and captured by the troops of Walraf, Konrad von Diepen and his men march on Coesfeld in victory. Set against a festive melody, the hymnresounds in full glory.

De slag bij Varlar vond plaats in het jaar 1454 in de buurt van de stad Coesfeld. Rob Goorhuis nam deze historische gebeurtenis als bron van inspiratie voor zijn gelijknamige werk. Beginnend met een hymne, refereert de componist aan de inwijding van een kapel, om vervolgens met trompetgeschal de veldslag aan te kondigen. Het houwen en kletteren van de zwaarden, maar ook de klagende stemmen van de gewonden nemen de krijgsgeluiden over, om tenslotte uit te monden in de klanken van de hymne uit het begin. Dit keer om de glorieuze overwinning te vieren…!

Die Schlacht von Varlar fand im Jahre 1454 in der Gegend der Stadt Coesfeld statt. Rob Goorhuis’ musikalisches Luftbild der historischen Ereignisse beginnt mit einer Hymne zur Einweihung einer Kapelle, dann kündigen Trompeten und Posaunen die bevorstehende Schlacht an. Im folgenden Getümmel ist Säbelgerassel, aber auch das Wehklagen der Verwundeten zu hören, bevor mit der Hymne aus dem Eingangsteil der glorreiche Sieg gefeiert wird.

La bataille de Varlar a eu lieu en l’an 1454 autour de la ville de Coesfeld (Allemagne). Telle une vue aérienne, l’oeuvre composée par Rob Goorhuis brosse le portrait des événements qui s’enchaînent les uns après les autres : un hymne en honneur de la chapelle près du champ de bataille, puis l’affrontement venir, le bruit des bottes et le cliquetis des sabres, les gémissements des blessés puis nouveau l’hymne de l’introduction, repris cette fois dans un tempo plus rapide car il est destiné célébrer la victoire.

Rob Goorhuis riprende gli avvenimenti storici della battaglia di Varlar che ebbe luogo nel 1454 nella citt di Coesfeld in Germania. Il brano inizia con un inno che simboleggia l’inaugurazione di una cappella, mentre le trombe e i tromboni annunciano l’imminente inizio delle ostilit . Segue un passaggio caratterizzato dai suoni tipici della cruenta battaglia, ma anche dai lamenti dei feriti, che anticipano il glorioso inno della vittoria.
