The Choir of St. Thomas' Anglican Church in Belleville, conducted and accompanied by music directors Matthieu Latreille & Francine Nguyen-Savaria, will be singing an hour of choral music at St. Thomas' Anglican Church on Sunday afternoon, October 21st. This year's evensong will feature music by English Renaissance composer Orlando Gibbons. Works to be performed include “Magnificat,” “Nunc dimittis,” and “O Lord, Increase My Faith” as well as two organ solos. This is a rare opportunity in this area to attend a Choral Evensong service as sung in Anglican Cathedrals for over 400 years. The evensong service is known as “vespers” in other denominations.
The event will start at 4:30 PM. A reception will follow during which light refreshments will be served.
Free-will offering.
