Choral Evensong
Friday, July 10th, at 7:30 pm (organ prelude at 7:20 pm), at All Saints.
Join the newly formed Winnipeg ensemble Collegium Chamber Choir for a special send-off Choral Evensong before the choir departs to sing a week of services at Ely Cathedral, one of England’s most magnificent medieval cathedrals.
The music will include:
Preces & Respones by W. Smith of Durham
Magnificat by C.T. Pachelbel
Nunc Dimittis by Rupert Lang
Bleib bei Uns from Cantata No. 6 by J.S. Bach.
Featuring conductors Andrew Balfour (Winnipeg) and Bryn Nixon (Vancouver), as well as Nathan Jeffery (Toronto) on the organ.
Following the traditional language of the Book of Common Prayer, Choral Evensong combines scripture, prayer, and beautiful sacred music in a service of reflection and contemplation, with a homily preached by the Rector, Fr. Rob Schoeck. All are welcome.
