Sunday 7 June is the first Sunday of the month, which means the Choir of St. John’s, Shaughnessy will offer the traditional Anglican service of Choral Evensong at four o’clock in the afternoon.
This month’s music list:
- Voluntary: Herbert Howells, Psalm Prelude, Op.32, No.2
- Introit: Thomas Tallis, Verily, verily I say unto you
- Responses: Richard Ayleward
- Psalm 110: James Turle
- Canticles: Herbert Howells, Collegium Regale
- Anthem: John Ireland, Greater love hath no man
- Voluntary: Dieterich Buxtehude, Praeludium in D, BuxWV 139
Come listen to the lofty lines of Herbert Howells‘ setting of the Magnificat, inspired by the vaulted ceiling of King’s College Chapel; encounter the sacrificial love of God in John Ireland‘s ubiquitous anthem; enter into the mystery of the eucharist through the father of English church music, Thomas Tallis. A 500-year-old tradition, Choral Evensong provides peace and prayer amidst our work and worry, inviting us to hear God’s beauty and hold to hope.
