Motet for the Feast of the Blessed Apostles Peter and Paul, in a composition published in 1572 by Giovanni Pierluigi da Palestrina (1525-1594), whose 500th birthday is being celebrated this year.
The hauntingly beautiful 'Tu es Petrus' at the conclusion of the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass with Pope Leo XIV on the Feast of Sts. Peter and Paul. May God bless the Holy Father, on this the first time he celebrates the Feast of the Prince of the Apostles as Roman Pontiff. pic.twitter.com/rDIKwmk5UZ— Catholic Sat (@CatholicSat) June 29, 2025

I just discovered Palestrina this year. I really enjoy his work. J.S. Bach was also a big fan.
Is that the Ecumenical Patriarch of Constantinople with the Holy Father?
