Benedictine houses still typically celebrate the founder's feast on this
traditional day; now whether they would during Holy Week is another matter.
Likely not.

It is, of course, the feast of Benedict, Abbot (as he is described in the
Book of Common Prayer).
In the Sarum Calendar, a Simple feast with double Invitatory (which would
normally have nine lessons at Matins, of course.)
BUT if it occurs within Passiontide, it is deferred until the feast of his
translation on 11th July.
