Spotlight: Music Ministry Evensong
The choir sings Evensong three times a year. Evensong, which has been sung for the past five centuries, takes place in afternoon or twilight and comprises readings from the Book of Common Prayer and the sung liturgy. The beauty of the music and prayer are renowned for the sheer artistic aesthetics of the event — as opposed to being a strictly religious phenomenon. Please watch the calendar for the next Evensong and join us for this beautiful, contemplative service, which will be followed by a reception.
