Name: Te Deum - Remembrance and Comfort
Start: 2026-05-24T15:00:00-05:00
Location: St. Mary's Episcopal Church Kansas City

This Memorial Weekend, Te Deum presents a concert of reflection and solace, featuring Hubert Parry’s Songs of Farewell and Herbert Howells’ Requiem, alongside De Profundis and a world premiere of In Paradisum by our composer-in-residence, Dr. Keane Southard.
Written in response to personal loss and the devastating toll of war, these works offer a universal message of comfort in times of adversity. Parry’s and Howells’ compositions reflect the grief of their era, from the battlefield losses of World War I to the personal tragedy of Howells’ son. This program honors the resilience of the human spirit and provides a space for remembrance and healing.
