Abstract: | On Saturday morning of the 25th of March, I received the news that Mro Ġużeppi Mallia of Żebbuġ (Gozo) had passed away. I have known the Maestro since 2008 when the then Bishop Mario Grech appointed me assistant-priest of the Żebbuġ Parish where I served until September 2021. Ġużeppi Mallia was born in Żebbuġ Gozo in 1932, the son of Maestro Antonio Mallia and his wife Carmela née Mallia, one of three siblings. In the year of his birth, his father Antonio (1898-1980) composed the antiphon in honour of the Blessed Virgin Mary assumed into Heaven, which is still played today. |
