Choral Evensong

Please join us for Choral Evensong on Sunday, June 5 at 4 PM. With its roots in the ancient monastic tradition, this meditative, early evening service is centered around the singing of a significant portion from the Psalms, as well as the Magnificat and Nunc dimittis. The service is sung mostly by the choir, with the congregation joining in hymns and prayers.

Preses and Responses - Andrew Senn
Magnificat and Nunc dimittis - Sarah MacDonald
Behold, O God Our Defender - John Scott
Blest Pair of Sirens - Hubert Parry
