Anno 2022 - Sostegno al "Syriac Music Institute" (RI, USA) per la creazione di un sito web dedicato alla tradizione siriaca ortodossa. La Fondazione Laus Plena sosterrà nel 2022 la creazione di un sito dedicato alla tradizione musicale siriaca ortodossa, che dovrebbe mettere a disposizione dei fedeli e del clero, per l’uso nella liturgia (e dunque la loro conservazione come tradizione vivente), tutti i canti delle varie tradizioni siriache ortodosse, ben distinti e segnati, trascritti in note moderne, con le parole in siriaco traslitterato e la traduzione in inglese.

Year 2022 - Support to the Syriac Music Institute for the creation of a website dedicated the the Syriac Orthodox traditions. In 2022, the Laus Plena Foundation will support the creation of a website dedicated to the Syriac Orthodox traditions, which should put at the disposal of the faithful and of the clergy, for the use in the liturgy (and thus allow their conservation as a living tradition), all the chants of the different Syriac Orthodox traditions.

18 giugno 2022, ore 21, San Marino, Santuario del Cuore Immacolato di Maria  - Prima esecuzione del "Mattutino" di A. Pierucci,  composto  durante la pandemia Covid. "Custos, quid de nocte? Sentinella, quanto manca, perché finisca la notte?" Sì,  è una domanda da cui tutti siamo oggi angosciati; ma racchiude una certezza: la notte è avanzata; sorge il nuovo Giorno.  Scrive il profeta Abacuc: "Scrivi la visione e incidila bene sulle tavolette, perché la si legga speditamente. È una visione che attesta un termine, parla di una scadenza e non mentisce; se indugia, attendila, perché certo verrà e non tarderà".

Saturday 17 October 2020, 9 pm, Church of St Francis of Assisi, Jesi - Sunday 18 OCtober 2020, 4:30 pm, Tolentino (Abbadia di Fiastra): Oratorio S. Michele for soloists,choir and orchestra by Armando Pierucci, directed by Maurizio Petrolo. Many read in that chapter a very actual theme for our time: “A great sign appeared in the sky: a woman clothed with the sun, a crown of twelve stars on her head ... Then another sign appeared in the sky: a huge red dragon ... then a war started in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon ". This fight is so violent that, even if it is fought in the sky, its effects and tremors are felt also on earth.
