This year, the Magnificat Institute celebrates the 30th anniversary of its founding. Created by Br Armando Pierucci, the official organist of the Custody of the Holy Land, the Institute has trained over the years many young Christians, Muslims, and Jews—uniting them through a shared love of music. For Br Francesco Patton, Custos of the Holy Land, the Magnificat is much more than a music school. It is first and foremost a school of peaceful coexistence between different peoples.
