All Saints Evensong is next Friday, November 1, which is the actual Feast of All Saints. Join us at 7:00 pm for this free feast of choral music by the Renaissance composers Orlando Gibbons and Tomas Luis de Victoria, as well as music by English composers William Smith and John Goss, and more! It will be wonderful to honor all the saints by singing and worshipping together through the beautiful liturgy of Evensong. The service will be followed by a wonderful reception in the Parish Hall, sponsored by members who regularly attend the 7:30 am service.
Meanwhile, the anthems this Sunday, October 27, include a marvelous work by Felix Mendelssohn featuring our soprano and alto staff soloists, as well as a classic anthem at communion by Sir Edward Bairstow. Listen also for references to Reformation Sunday in the morning’s keyboard voluntaries.
