For centuries, the church has marked the transition from daytime to evening with psalms, prayer, and song. Duke Chapel's Choral Evensong follows this historic pattern, using the liturgy of the Book of Common Prayer and featuring choral and organ music from the English cathedral tradition, led by the Chapel's Evensong Singers.
The service is live streamed on the Duke Chapel YouTube channel and broadcast live on channel 12 of the Duke Hospital TV system and channel 110 of the Duke Campus Vision TV system.
