Join us for a beautiful evening on Sunday, October 9th. 2022 5-6 pm

Our 2022-23 music series begins this special evening sung by the chancel choir led by our new Director of Choral Activities, Brian LUSTIG, along with Jaebon Hwang.

Choral Evensong is a service sung daily in English cathedrals, a practice which dates back hundreds of years. Our Evensong for the Feast of St. Francis will feature Benjamin Britten’s glorious cantata Rejoice in the Lamb, with a melodious setting of the Magnificat and Nunc dimittis by Joanna Forbes L'Estrange. 🎼🎹🎶

It will be preceded by First Church’s annual Blessing of the Animals from 3-4 PM 🐈🐕‍🦺🦮🐩🐕

OUR last Rehearsal for the season ended with a sweet beginning with our new Choral Director, BRIAN LUSTIG. 🎶🎶🙏🏽💙💐 It was ammmmaaaazing!!! We felt it was a university level choral class! It was superb. Brian led us with such graciousness and patience as we rehearsed Sunday’s anthem. Brian touched and reemphasized all of the major elements that pertain to singing an anthem professionally. Thank you Brian! We hope to see any members that have been out of touch this last season. Or bring a friend to our choir. 💙💐 cheers to many seasons with BRIAN!
