This year marks the 100th anniversary of the death of Charles Villiers Stanford. For this Evensong we will highlight the glorious works of this magnificent composer. Choral Evensong is a cherished service in the Anglican tradition, characterized by its serene beauty and contemplative atmosphere. Dating back to the 16th century, it seamlessly blends scripture readings, prayers, and a rich tapestry of choral music. With its roots in monastic practice, Evensong offers a peaceful pause at the end of the day, inviting reflection and spiritual nourishment. It is a unique and treasured expression of Anglican liturgy, beloved for its harmonious balance of word and song.
