About the event
The Choirs of St. Peter's Episcopal Church and Christ Church Episcopal will be joining together for an Evensong in celebration of the feast of the Confession of St. Peter. Choral Evensong is a service of scripture, prayer, and music. It has been sung regularly in the Anglican church since the sixteenth century. The service is referred to as Choral Evensong because many parts are prepared by the Choir, while the People (the congregation) join in saying and singing other parts of the service.
Repertoire offered will be the Byrd Preces and Responses, Magnificat and Nunc in C by Charles-Villiers Stanford, and The Lord is my Shepherd by John Rutter. This Evensong is offered as part of the Musicales concert series.
