MUSIC AND
SPIRITUALITY

● FIVE LECTURE SERIES
The project

The project was born following a meeting between some university professors at the Catholic Forum Rome promoted by the University of Notre Dame Rome Global Gateway in April 2022.

It is not easy to meet the spiritual needs of our times. In secular society, probably only art remains the last possible means to offer a solution in line with the tradition of our culture and civilization. Among all forms of art, music is the one that addresses the human being in the most direct way.

The lecture series is based on research and rediscovery of spiritual values through music. Musicians, from four countries and active in the field of musical and theological education, offer the opportunity to experience spirituality through the analysis of some reflections on the subject.

The project is proposed in the form of 5 study days of 4 hours each.
