Name: Westminster Choir: Evensong
Start: 2025-09-27T17:00:00-04:00
Location: Trinity Church Princeton

Step into a soundscape shaped by centuries of tradition in Evensong—a profound musical journey echoing the rituals, reverence, and resonance of sacred rites. Rooted in the timeless structure of the liturgical form, this program offers a contemplative and immersive experience, weaving together choral works that speak to both the solemnity of mourning and the quiet resilience of faith.
As voices rise in chant and harmony, the evening unfolds like a procession through memory and meaning, each piece a step deeper into the mystery of the divine. Echoing through the program is a poignant refrain: “our flags are wafting in hope and grief”—a lyrical meditation that captures the essence of this concert's emotional landscape: the dual burden and blessing of remembrance, and the flickering light of hope carried forward.
Join us for an evening where ancient words find new resonance, and sacred music becomes a vessel for shared sorrow, enduring faith, and transcendent beauty.
Donald Nally, conductor
Michael Diorio, organ
Claire Fritz and Lucas Heredia, graduate assistant conductors
