In an Austrian tribute to the jubilee celebration of the 500th anniversary of the laying of the first stone of St. Peter’s Basilica, Cardinal Christoph Schönborn will celebrate Mass there on Sunday.

Cardinal Schönborn was invited to celebrate the special Mass by the Archpriest of the Basilica of St. Peter’s Cardinal Francesco Marchisano. The Philharmonic Orchestra of Vienna and the Vienna Boys’s Choir will provide the music for the Mass, which will be taken from Mozart’s Mass of Coronation.
